Money Talks podcast: Parker talks Monopoly
Parker wants to have fun. Daddy won't stop teaching life lessons.
In Episode 2 of the Money Talks podcast, I’m joined by Parker for a discussion about Monopoly.
Without shame, Parker made it clear she plays strictly for fun. Then she scoffed at me about my tendency to almost spoil a good time by teaching life lessons. I can’t help it. What game better encapsulates earning, spending, saving and investing so masterfully?
Thankfully, Parker doesn’t feel I’ve ruined the game for her by mixing money talks into one of our favorite board games. Listening to her express some lessons she’s learned from the game lets me know I can let up and at least have a little more fun. Parker is indeed learning, and that’s my mission.
Before we got into the meat of Monopoly, Parker gave an update on her life and a few activities she’s participating in as the end of third grade is fast approaching.
