You know, growing up, my parents didn't really sit me down and teach me about money.

It was more of a you figure it out as you go kind of situation.

I remember my first job in getting paid in cash every week.

I didn't think about saving.

Honestly, I just spent it all in whatever I wanted.

If I could go back and teach myself one thing, it would be about managing money and saving.

And now, as a parent, I'm all about teaching my kid the value of

money early so they don't make the same mistakes I did. That's where Acorns Early comes in.

Today's episode is sponsored by Acorns Early. Acorns Early is a smart money app and debit card

for kids that helps them learn the value of money. The app's chores tracker teaches kids that hard work

pays off. Just set up chores in the app, set a payment amount, and tick the chore off when it's done.

Acorns Early also lets parents pay allowances automatically.

No more rummaging around for cash.

You can send a weekly allowance to your kids' account with just a few taps.

Kids can spend what they earn with their very own debit card.

They'll love the new sense of independence

and choosing from 35 plus customizable card designs. Plus, parents can track where and when

their kids are spending, get real-time notifications, set spending limits, and instantly block

lost or stolen cards. The best part, Acorns Early helps your kids turn saving into a habit. They can set savings goals and even use the auto save feature.
