The ideas in The Wealth Trap apply to every family—but most parents lack a structured way to implement them. You can see the signs: entitlement creeping in, motivation fading, comfort replacing hunger.
The Academy bridges that gap. It translates the book's principles into actionable guidance you can use with your children immediately.
Browse by age and go as deep as your family needs. Every lesson includes a video, a downloadable implementation guide, and age-specific exercises you can use the same week.
Children at this age learn through hands-on experience, observation, and simple narratives. The lessons for this stage focus on contribution, usefulness, basic money concepts, and small acts of service. Activities are hands-on and family-centered.
This is the best time to establish identity, agency, and the connection between effort and outcome—before comfort becomes the default.
01
Money is stored energy: a tool humans created to trade value across time and distance.
02
The three-jar framework builds the habit of intentional allocation before the habit of consumption takes hold.
03
A business is an organized way to solve a problem for someone else, and children who understand that become creators, not just consumers.
04
The ability to wait, to trade something good now for something better later, is one of the most predictive traits of long-term success.
05
Entitlement shrinks when children understand what it actually took to build what the family has, and gratitude is the antidote.
06
Being useful to others builds identity and self-worth in a way that praise and provision never can.
Video lesson (5–7 minutes): Connor teaches the concept directly to the parent—the idea, why it matters, the framework, and the mistakes well-meaning parents typically make. We equip you, the parent, to become the teacher to foster more intentional conversation in your family.
Downloadable implementation guide: One PDF per lesson, organized by your child's age inside. Hands-on activities, dinner conversation starters, debrief questions, watch-out notes, recommended resources, and next steps.
Every module is a short, focused video lesson hosted by Connor Boyack

"It changed how we talk about money as a family."
We have three kids between 9 and 17 and were nervous about finding something that worked across different ages. It does. For the first time we're all using the same vocabulary & our family meetings actually mean something.

“We stopped guessing and started having the right conversations.”
We'd been worried about entitlement for years but never had a structured way to address it. After the first few modules, our 7-year-old was already talking about earning, saving, and giving like it was just how things work.
Sydney, AU
"Our 15-year-old launched her first business within a month."
We weren't sure she'd engage. She did. The content gave her a framework she could actually use — not theory, but real steps. She started a small service business and has already reinvested her first profits.

The Academy is an online, video-based curriculum hosted by Connor Boyack. It is organized around the three pillars of The Wealth Trap — Meaning, Alignment, and Activation — across 5 topics. Every lesson includes age-specific exercises parents can apply with their children immediately.
The Academy is designed for parents of children ages 5–25 who are concerned about entitlement, lack of motivation, or their children's ability to navigate an uncertain economic landscape. It is also valuable for grandparents who want to support—not undermine—the development of their grandchildren.
Each module is a 7-9 minute video lesson followed by 15 minute practical exercises. There are no assignments, no grades, and no scheduled sessions. You work through the content at your own pace, on your family's timeline.
The Academy is a one-time purchase at $1,997. No subscription, no renewal, no additional fees. We provide you lifetime access to all current content and all future additions, helping you each year as your children increase in age.
No. The Academy is designed to stand on its own. That said, the book deepens the context behind every module and is highly recommended. Many families read the book and enroll in the Academy at the same time.
The Family Operating System is the practical output of the Academy — a living framework for decisions, values, purpose, and succession that your family builds over time. It is the thing that makes the Academy different from a lecture series.
