Just trusted information and real stories. Hosted by journalist, author, and mom of three Jo Piazza.

This episode brings together three guests to investigate. Economist Kathryn Ann Edwards traces the history of programs like this and where they've worked before. CFP Barbara Ginty breaks down how she's weighing Trump Accounts against 529s for her own daughter. And Babylist CEO Natalie Gordon joins to talk about what financial security for kids could look like — and why the registry is only the beginning of the financial reality of a new baby. If you're pregnant, newly postpartum, or just trying to figure out what to do this week for your kid's future, this one's for you. Guests Kathryn Anne Edwards is a PhD labor economist. She writes opinion columns for Bloomberg news, hosts the Optimist Economy podcast, and runs an independent research and consulting business.&nbsp; Barbara Ginty is a Certified Financial Planner and the host of the Future Rich Podcast. She has been featured as an expert in Yahoo Finance, NY POST, Refinery29, NBC, MSNBC, CNBC, MSN, LA Times, NASDAQ, and Forbes.&nbsp; Natalie Gordon founded Babylist in 2011 while pregnant with her first child, convinced there had to be a better way to help expecting parents get what they need when they have a baby. Fifteen years later, more than 1 in 5 families having a baby in the US use the platform, over 10 million people give a gift on Babylist every year.","meta_description":"Trump Accounts are here, and every parent has the same question: will this actually help my kid, or is it just another investment vehicle dressed up as po…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1708,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/birth-with-babylist-7667946/episodes/trump-accounts-what-every-parent-needs-to-know/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/birth-with-babylist-7667946/trump-accounts-what-every-parent-needs-to-know.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
