You make good money. You pay your bills. You save. But are you actually building wealth? In this episode of Raise Rich Kids, I’m challenging what it really means to be good with money — because being financially responsible and being financially strategic are two very different things. Inspired by conversations with my financial planning clients and watching my daughter launch her own business through the Kidpreneur Challenge, I’m breaking down 7 common financial gaps that could be holding you back from building the wealth you’re working so hard for. We’re talking about everything from understanding your TFSAs and RRSPs to managing cash flow, tackling debt, optimizing taxes, and making sure your financial decisions are actually working together. Because making money is one skill. Knowing what to do with it is another. And the question isn’t just, “Am I good with money?” It’s “Do I actually have a financial game plan that's helping me build the life I want?” __________________________________________________________________________________________________ EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: Why being financially responsible doesn't automatically mean you're building wealthHow to give your savings a purpose instead of letting money sit in random accountsWhy understanding your TFSA, RRSP, FHSA and RESP is essential to making smarter financial decisionsHow to recognize lifestyle inflation and take control of your cash flowWhy credit card debt needs an actual repayment strategy, not just monthly paymentsHow to become more proactive with taxes instead of only thinking about them at tax timeWhy money conversations with your partner are essential to building wealth togetherThe importance of looking at your entire financial picture instead of making isolated financial decisionsHow your financial literacy today shapes your children's financial future tomorrow__________________________________________________________________________________________________ JOIN MY FREE GOOD WITH MONEY MASTERCLASS If this episode made you realize there are a few financial gaps you need to fill, I created something just for you.
