Gen Z and Millennials face a radically different financial world than parents and grandparents did when they were in their 20s and 30s. Steep rises in housing costs, expanded student loan debt, new financial tools like Buy Now Pay Later and the ability to spend money without friction on TikTok or Instagram feeds have radically impacted the way GenZ and Millennials interact with their financial lives. Too often they feel shame, fear, and disengagement when they think about money. And their elders (and financial service professionals) all too often sound like Charlie Brown’s teacher when they engage in conversations about money. In this 90-minute talk and Q&A session, author Anne Lester will help you understand why it can be hard to save and invest (and it’s not just because of a lack of income and too much stuff to buy!), how to see the world of money from your child or grandchild’s eyes, and how you can use storytelling to connect more powerfully so you can help them live their best financial life.
