What does it mean to teach kids about money when they grow up in comfort and rarely see real scarcity? In this insightful episode, school owner and entrepreneur John Fearon shares how he helps his children build financial confidence, understand value, and develop the courage to take risks in a rapidly changing world.

He reflects on the different ways children learn, the importance of letting them experiment, and why he believes confidence comes from exposure to many environments, not just academic success. John also discusses the role of EQ, real world problem solving, and the financial habits that matter more than traditional saving rules.

"Let them try, let them fail, and let them learn.”
