MEET ADELE
CPA and Kids Money Wizard!
I grew up in a house with no TV for 7 years of my childhood. Which sounds like a hardship until you hear what we did instead: dinners that ran one hour, sometimes four, where money was just another thing families talked about. Shares. Bank accounts. How the family business was going. My pocket money started at 20 cents a week, and every week $2 went into my primary school bank book.
I didn't realise it at the time, but those dinners were my inheritance. They became a brokerage account at 19, first property in my 20s, and eventually the freedom to raise my two girls on my own and leave a 21-year corporate career to build this.
But over those 21 years in corporate, I noticed something that wouldn't let me go. Brilliant, hardworking adults living pay cheque to pay cheque. Capable people discovering compound interest in their 40s, decades after it could have done its best work. Not one of them less smart than me. They just never got the dinner table.
That's why Little Finance Builders exists. I believe every child should leave home with basic financial literacy already in place, so they're not learning about money at the same time they're learning how to survive without their parents. Kids form their money habits by around age 7. Those years are happening at your place right now, and you don't need to be a money expert to use them. You need simple tools, real conversations, and moments your family already has.
My girls are 6 and 8, and money is as normal at our table as "how was school?". I'd love to help you build the same.
Let's make money normal in families.
