#65 - Financial Empowerment for Our Youth: Part 2, with Kinley Reynolds

Responsible financial management leads to wealth. Wealth may not be important to you, but it is necessary for our young people to learn about money now, and it doesn’t always happen in school. Where did you learn about money management? Wouldn’t it be great if people had a solid foundation about how to manage their money before they graduated high school. 

 

In Episode #65, we get to hear from California Baptist University student Kinley Reynolds about her view on money and what she is doing to empower more students to take control of their finances. Kinley recognizes the importance of financial education now and is going to take her desire to serve others well beyond her own education.
