Summary
Today we're speaking with an avid So Money listener, a real fan. He and I connected because of this podcast and just proof that if you like this show enough and you connect with me, you might be a guest on the show! He's a highly accomplished tech entrepreneur as well, not just a listener, but he is very, very successful. His name is Bill Dwight. He is the founder and CEO of Famzoo.com, it's an online and mobile banking service that's designed to help busy parents teach kids good money habits. It's been featured in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, Time, NPR, and it also will be featured in Money Magazine this July as I wrote about it a little bit in my July column for Money Magazine about how to teach your kids good allowance lessons. FamZoo's also featured in Ron Leaver's best seller of "The Opposite of Spoiled". Remember, Ron was on the podcast - that was So Money Episode 47. FamZoo was also voted Best of Show twice in 2011 and in 2013 at Finovate, which is the premier showcase conference for emerging financial technologies.
