Empowering Kids with Financial Literacy: A Conversation with Ty Allan Jackson

Hello everyone, Dr. Bob here, bringing you another insightful episode of The Dr. Bob Rakowski Podcast. This week, I’m thrilled to share a conversation with Ty Allan Jackson, a passionate advocate for teaching financial literacy and entrepreneurship to children. His mission is to empower the next generation with the tools they need to succeed in life, starting with understanding money.



In this episode, Ty shares his journey as a self-published author who has sold over 250,000 books, overcoming countless rejections along the way. His experience underscores the importance of persistence, resilience, and the power of saying “yes” to yourself when the world says “no.”


Ty and I dive into the significance of teaching financial literacy to children early in life. He emphasizes that financial education is more than understanding numbers—it’s about empowering kids to dream beyond conventional limits, envision themselves as entrepreneurs, and make informed decisions that will shape their future.


We also discuss practical ways parents can foster financial literacy at home. Ty shares valuable tips, from using everyday experiences like grocery shopping to teach kids about money, to encouraging entrepreneurial activities like lemonade stands. He highlights how these small lessons can have a profound impact on a child’s financial mindset.


One of Ty’s most impactful initiatives is the Danny Dollar Entrepreneur Fair, a platform where kids can present business ideas and explore entrepreneurship firsthand. Through this fair, Ty has empowered over 3,000 young minds, teaching them that dreaming big and believing in their potential can lead to incredible outcomes.


A powerful takeaway from this episode is the idea that teaching children about money isn’t just about financial success—it’s about helping them develop self-confidence, resilience, and a mindset for growth. Ty’s approach to education goes beyond numbers; it’s about building a foundation that prepares kids to thrive in all areas of life.


Thank you for joining us in this inspiring discussion with Ty Allan Jackson. His passion for financial literacy and entrepreneurship is truly transformative. Remember, the lessons we instill in our children today shape the leaders of tomorrow.


Stay tuned for more episodes where we continue to explore holistic wellness and empowerment in all aspects of life.


Warm regards,

Dr. Bob
