It's said that money doesn't buy happiness. That's true—but it's not hard to understand that having your financial life in order makes living a happy life that much easier. As is the case with so many other things, the earlier you get on the road to financial literacy, the better.
That's where Stephen Carter comes in.
Stephen is an author, speaker, and Director of Entrepreneurship at Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy, where he has built a nationally-recognized program teaching students the basics of business.
He's also the founder of Seed Tree Group, which teaches money management and wealth building to teenagers and young adults. Alongside his book of the same name, The Seed Tree: A Financial Fable, Stephen is changing the financial trajectory of an entire generation. Through the power of story, Stephen covers concepts like how to create a budget, finding a first job, setting up a ROTH IRA and developing an investment plan that harnesses the power of compound interest.
If you have children at home, this is a can't miss conversation. But even if you don't, Stephen has the wisdom to help direct us all toward greater degrees of financial freedom.
