About Us
At The Pig, we believe financial education should start early, be engaging, and actually make sense. That’s why we’ve built a fun, age-appropriate learning space that empowers kids, tweens, and teens to understand money, build smart habits, and grow into confident financial decision-makers. Whether it’s learning how to budget, save, invest, or avoid common money traps, The Pig turns real-world skills into something they’ll actually want to learn.
Making Money Make Sense—For Kids!
Let’s be real—most schools don’t teach you how to handle money, build wealth, or avoid financial traps. But here’s the good news: we do! The Pig is your go-to resource for breaking down money, investing, and wealth-building in a way that’s actually fun, easy to understand, and designed for kids, teens, and young adults.
Whether you want to start investing, launch a side hustle, or just stop wondering where your money went, we’ve got you covered.
Who’s Behind This?
Our founder is a former government economist, educator, and parent who couldn’t find the financial education resources they wanted for their own kids—so they built this platform to share them with you. With 20+ years of experience, they’ve seen it all when it comes to money. From analyzing economic trends to teaching thousands of students, they know how to make financial education simple, practical, and life-changing.
But here’s the thing—this platform isn’t about us, it’s about YOU. That’s why we’re keeping things faceless and 100% focused on giving you the tools to take control of your money—without distractions.
