They say the first generation earns it, the second enjoys it, and the third burns it - but it doesn’t have to be that way. In this thought-provoking episode of 𝐖𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞, Teneale & Kelsey explore how families can break the cycle by focusing not just on wealth creation, but on the values that sustain it across generations.
Join us as we dive into the mindsets and principles that build lasting wealth, the power of family money meetings, and the importance of intentional gifting. What are you teaching your children about money management, generosity, and responsibility? Discover practical ways to pass on financial wisdom and values that endure far beyond the balance sheet.

Ep 42 - Does Money Change People?
Jun 23, 2025
Jun 23, 2025
47 min
In this thought-provoking episode of 𝐖𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 Kelsey & Teneale dive into the age-old question: Does money change people? Teneale kicks things off with some late-night online shopping confessions and practical tips, setting the stage for a deeper conversation about the power and pitfalls of wealth.
From the freedom and security that money can bring, to the stress it sometimes relieves - or creates - they explore both sides of the coin. The discussion touches on the generosity that wealth can enable, the temptation of superiority, and the surprising paradox between earned and inherited riches.
They also unpack the emotional rollercoaster of sudden wealth (hello, lotto winners!) and bring it all back to what really matters: your personal values.
Whether you're building your fortune or just curious about how money shapes us, this episode offers insight and a fresh perspective on what it means to be truly wealthy.
