Amy asks “How can I get my kids interested in investing? And where should I start?”
To help me answer her question, I invited Rishi Vamdatt to the show. Rishi is an 11-year-old financial educator who is the creator of Easy Peasy Finance, a YouTube channel focused on helping kids learn about money.
Rishi's knowledge of investing is incredible. You have to hear and see it to believe it!
