For author, entrepreneur, and father Cazerny Bussey, teaching children about money is about more than dollars and cents. It is about giving the next generation the knowledge and confidence to make informed choices as they grow.
On October 12, 2026, Bussey was featured on The Author Entrepreneur Collective Podcast, hosted by Stacy Matson, for a conversation about financial literacy, parenting, and why money lessons should begin long before adulthood.
Helping Children Build Financial Confidence
From saving and budgeting to making thoughtful spending decisions, learning how money works can open doors for children and families. The conversation explores how introducing those ideas early can build a foundation young people carry into the future.
As a father, Bussey sees financial education as one of the practical lessons worth passing down. Children do not need to master every concept at once. They need opportunities to ask questions, develop healthy habits, and learn that their choices matter.
The Story Behind The Money Master
That belief also inspired his children’s book, The Money Master: Alex’s Guide to Financial Literacy. Through Alex’s story, Bussey introduces young readers to saving, investing, and entrepreneurship in an approachable way.
During the interview, Bussey also discusses how the book could grow into workshops, school programs, and other resources that make financial education accessible to more children and families.
A Conversation Worth Sharing
In addition to his work as an author and creative entrepreneur, Bussey is the founder and CEO of Even Though I’m Blind, Inc., a nonprofit focused on accessibility, education, advocacy, media, and opportunity. His latest podcast appearance reflects a broader commitment to helping people access knowledge and resources that can shape their future.
The message for parents and educators is simple: meaningful money conversations do not have to wait. Sometimes the most valuable thing we can give children is a lesson they can use for the rest of their lives.
