Show Notes

In this episode, host Belle Osvath, CFP® speaks with Mike Alves, MSAFP, CFP®, CEPA, CRPC®, founder of Vida Private Wealth. Mike shares his unique approach to integrating financial education into wealth management by developing a curriculum tailored to young people from childhood through adulthood. He discusses the genesis of this initiative, which began somewhat by accident but evolved into a deliberate and structured program aimed at educating clients' children and grandchildren about wealth management and financial responsibility.

Mike explains the importance of introducing financial concepts early, noting that the younger generation is becoming increasingly aware of complex financial products like private equity and cryptocurrency due to widespread access to information via social media. His approach is hands-on, with classes tailored to different age groups, ensuring that the financial education provided is age-appropriate and engaging.
