    In this week's episode, I answer financial questions for middle school students.

    1. "Does everyone need a budget?".... Everyone needs a budget to make sure you have more money coming in versus going out.
    2. "How do I make money now?".... Odd jobs, tutoring, mowing lawns, dog walking, car washer, yard work, assistant, etc.
    3. "What leads to making more money later?".... More education--college, trade, certifications, etc.
    4. "How do you do your taxes?".... Defer to a professional like a CPA or accountant. There is online software, but you have to be aware of the limitations pertaining to your situation.
    5. "How do I stay out of debt?".... Use a budget.

    There are more really good questions on the podcast.

    Tips

  • Dynamic Conversation with Aspiring Financial Planner, Grief Survivor and College Student Adam Delisle
    2024/10/16

    Send us a text

    Today I had an awe-inspiring conversation with college student, Adam Delisle. Adam lost his father at the age of sixteen. He also witnessed his mother and family picking up the pieces during his formative years. The financial impact made a lasting impression on Adam.

    Adam approached me due to the unique nature of my firm. He is very outgoing and had the courage to reach out and ask questions to push himself forward.

    Adam aspires to become a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ to help fellow grievers, who have had a similar experience to his own. His charisma, drive to succeed and ultimately help others, will no doubt make himself a success. Adam has also done the heavy lifting to successfully place himself on the other side of grief. Kudos to him for getting the mental help he needed to become a better version of himself.

    As I like to help those who help themselves, I want to aid Adam in any form or fashion that could place him into a position to help others. He is open to being contacted and would love the opportunity to entertain an opportunity for an internship.

    2024/10/09

    Send us a text

    I was super excited for an inspiring chat with PreMed Student, Sophia Donovan. Sophia also happens to be my Goddaughter.

    We talk about things like....
    What makes sense financially...traveling abroad or staying stateside for an internship or residency?
    What makes sense financially....attending an expensive top tier med school or a modest well established med school?
    We also talk about finances applicable to any college student...budgets, how much to spend on what and how to save.

    As Sophia aspires to attend med school, I am including her email address to help with any access she so deserves. sophia.l.donovan@gmail.com

    Sophia, thank you for always inspiring me to be the best version of myself.

  • Repartee with Naval Captain (Aspiring) Maddox D
    2024/10/02

    Send us a text

    Today's podcast is with SuperStar US Naval Academy Student, Maddox D. Maddox challenges me with real life questions facing college students aspiring to transition to careers after college. He also asks great questions pertaining to any young adult, who has recently transitioned from high school to college.

    Maddox's parlay into the the US Naval Academy is no easy feat. The US Naval Academy has an acceptance rate of 8%. Not great odds, but Maddox got in with great grades, great test scores and great parents.

    Maddox has big plans for his life. I commend him for his willingness to banter with me about finances at a basic level, which will ultimately lead to his future success.

    By the way, Maddox is the older brother of Luka D, whom I had Q & A on last weeks' episode. Maddox is also my nephew and godson.

    This was a really fun episode as I learned a lot from Maddox.

  • Fireside Chat with Student/Athlete Luka D
    2024/09/25

    Send us a text

    Today I had the pleasure of interviewing High School Student/Athlete Luka D. Luka is also known as my godson and nephew. Luka came to me about a year ago and asked why I have not interviewed any young folks on the podcast about their questions about finance. Well, I decided to bring his question to life. Luka is wise beyond his years as you will see by his questions and methodical process on the podcast.

    I was both happy and inspired to interview him. I probably learned just as much from him as he took away from the interview with me.

    Luka, thank you for inspiring me to grow.

    We are back for another wonderful season of Real Talk with Life After Grief Chris. The opening of Season 7 is all about teenagers and college students asking financial questions. During Season 6, I was probed by some very curious high schoolers and college students to answer financial questions, which are important to up and coming full-fledged adults.

    This was really fun for me as it took me back to my high school and college years. Of course, I will also throw in some good information for adults and parents along the way.

    Cheers & see you on the next episode!
