“I wish I’d learned this earlier”
Hi folks,
Over the past few months, we’ve spent a lot of time listening—to parents and to teens.
We asked what felt missing, what felt frustrating, and what people wished they’d learned earlier. Across dozens of conversations, a few themes came up again and again.
One parent told us:
“We kind of started life without this knowledge, and we don’t want our kids to start that way.”
And a teen shared:
“I wouldn’t have been interested if it was just about money.”
Those insights mattered. And they changed how we’re building Teen Millionaires Club™.
🚗 A key realization
We originally thought of TMC™ as something like a club—show up when you want, learn at your own pace.
But after listening, we realized financial education is different. It’s less like a gym membership… and more like Driver’s Ed.
Optional, yes—but most people agree it’s a good idea if you don’t want your kid to crash.
🧠 What we heard (and acted on)
- Parents don’t want to nag or fight about money
- Teens don’t want lectures or abstract advice
- Both want confidence before real decisions and risks show up
Because of that feedback, we designed the Phase 2 Pilot to be structured, small, live, and practical—with real milestones teens can point to.
🗓️ What’s next
We’re preparing to launch our Phase 2 Pilot in January 2026, with just two small cohorts to start.
💬 Want to reserve a seat?
We’re opening reservations only right now (no payment yet). Reserving a seat simply raises your hand and gives you priority when registration opens.
Feel free to forward this email to any parent or teen who might benefit from starting the new year with stronger financial skills.
Warmest regards for a joyful holiday season,
Allen, CJ, and Chance
