Making Money a Family Topic
43. Mike Fraietta – Making Money a Family Topic, host William Glass sits down with the Founder & CEO of KidFolio. KidFolio is an app that helps friends and family send money to kids safely and easily all while creating meaningful ways to bond, learn & build for the future. The idea for KidFolio came out of Mike’s own experiences buying stocks for his niece over the years and then his own desire as a father to help set his son up for success.
In today’s episode, we discuss the importance of setting children up for success financially and strategies to provide kids with a strong money foundation. Mike also discusses how bartending all over the world and at his family’s local bar in Philadelphia set him up with the skills and understanding of people to build a career in online community building. Mike mentions a resource for children’s books about money https://www.consumerfinance.gov/consumer-tools/money-as-you-grow/bookshelf/
