Teaching kids about money (with Chang Chien-Hua, part 1)

About this episode

You think managing money is only for adults? "Business-Brain Big Sister Gold" (商腦金姐姐) wants you to know: financial literacy is best started early.

In this episode, my guest is Chang Chien-Hua (張倩華), a Golden Bell Award-winning radio host also known as the "godmother of podcasts," talking about her new book on teaching kids about money (不教不成財): why children need financial education, and how family background deeply shapes our attitudes to money.

You'll hear: • How Chang went from TV and radio host to independent content creator • Why she writes as "Business-Brain Big Sister Gold" to bring kids into the world of money • Why family upbringing matters more than good genes: how financial education shapes a whole life • From "savings in a cookie tin" to "getting rich on TSMC": the contrasting stories of two mothers • Investing doesn't need genius genes; the earlier you start, the more compounding works for you

If you're puzzling over how to teach your kids about money, or want to re-examine your own attitude to money, don't miss this one! Because real education isn't just teaching children to study; it's teaching them how to live with money.
