#55: THAT is Debbie Todd, a multi-certified in accounting and finance, a nationally published writer and has been a passionate financial literacy instructor for over 15 years. God led her on this very interesting and divine journey to partner up with Phyllis Matson to educate young children and parents about money by using puppet theater.
In her own words:
“The most common financial regret I have heard in my 20 years as a CPA and financial educator is that parents wished they were more confident with their own money skills, so they could help their kids be money-smart too.
Unfortunately, the tragic reality is that money problems are cited as the single largest cause of crime, family stress, strife and breakups in the US -and extends globally”
And I love what she quoted her partner, Phyllis said: “Tomorrow's Philanthropists and World-Changers are sitting in booster seats today! AND...Kids learn MOST of their money habits by AGE 7! “
