Money with Mak and G

Money with Mak and G

Ben Jones

Welcome to the finance podcast for adults and kids. Mak and G are 11-year old twins and they’re going to teach you, and your kids, all about money. Each bite-sized ‘minisode’ tackles a financial topic like Piggy Bank Origins, The Value of Money (and how to conserve), What’s An Allowance, and more. Because they’re short, you can listen in the car on the way to soccer practice, dance, gymnastics or even school. Mak and G talk to the kids and ‘Dad’ chimes in with his 2 cents at the end so both parents and kids can put what they learned into practice. It’s fun financial education for everyone.

How do you know if you’re poor? There’s no real definition, and even if there is one, everyone's view is different. It doesn’t hurt to be a bit more forgiving to those around us, who don’t necessarily have the money for things we may take for granted.

play

06/16/20 • 13 min

Is the stock market sick? It looked like it may have caught something bad with the big drop in March. Did it catch Corona?

Funny enough, it may have. Since Corona has affected the entire economy, you better believe that the stock market is affected too.
