Back to School & Your Pocket Book

I enjoyed being a guest on the Texas Credit Union League's radio show "Your Money, Your Matters" this morning. If you missed it you can listen to the broadast here:

 

Some of the things we discussed are:

• Child care and back to school expenses.
• Discussing your fear and anxiety over money in front of your kids.
• Ways to teach your children about money without projecting your anxiety onto them.
• How to teach your children to be responsible but not feel guilty over money that is spent on them.
• Ways to manage guilt because you don't have money to give your family certain perks.
• How to handle lending money to a "career borrower" when you learn he/she never intends to pay you back (a.k.a. "being duped").

Thank you Rick, Linda, Mark and Courtney for having me on the show!
