Ep. 1: Economy and Investing 101

Today, we talk about the economy. What is it, and why does it matter? How can you, as a teen, contribute to the economy through saving, spending, and investing? And how you can create a financial plan to be responsible with cash in the future. You’ll hear from us— student to student— why you should start today, and why it’s easier than you think. I’m Matthew Newkirk with Connor Cook, and this is Young Money.Listen to our second episode for more on Robinhood and how you can start investing today!DISCLAIMER:We’re not financial advisors— we’re just two kids who have started making personal finance plans for our future at 18. We’re telling you what we know and giving you our opinions, so that you can hear from people your age how you can start creating your financial future and get ahead of the game. Take everything you hear and make your own decisions every time— don’t do something only because someone says it. If you have questions, you can ask us on our website, youngmoneypodcast.com, or talk to a trusted adult who knows their Personal Finance. And as always, if you don’t understand it, don’t do it. The Young Money Podcast is a production of King Street Studios. This podcast was powered by Zoom— the leader in digital conferencing software.
