The agency angle is what seperates this from typical financial literacy. Most parents teach budgeting and savings but skip the part where kids see themselves as active participants who can own businesses or influence outcomes. Taking him to the AGM puts a human face on investing beyond just watching numbers on a screen. I try to do something similiar by taking my nephew to local small business owner meetups so he understands entrepreneurship isnt some distant thing.
This is awesome. Thanks for the idea! Your son is very fortunate to have such a caring father.
Thanks for the kind words Brian. Just doing my best over here.

Thanks for the comment. I agree and think most parents teach the math of personal finance and investing and miss the psychology.
Taking your nephew to a small business owner meetup is a great idea.
