rich and REGULAR: Financially Supporting a Parent (Our Story)

Julien and Kiersten Saunders (@richandregular) are discussing their personal experience of moving their mom out of Senior housing and taking on the role of financially supporting a parent. Caring for elders and children at the same time isn’t a new concept, but a recent report suggests that modern caregivers are younger and more ethnically diverse and newer to caregiving as a whole. Millennials and Gen X’ers are feeling the squeeze.  We don’t have any magic solutions, but in this week’s episode, we share:  How Julien’s upbringing and cultural norms impacted his financial planning  What led us to step in and provide financial assistance  What it means to be part of the “sandwich generation” Our favorite resources on navigating difficult money conversations with parents Full show notes and resources can be found here: www.richandregular.com/listen  Connect with us in the Success Achievers Community where we host monthly training on a range of topics!
