Saturday Morning Magazine with Bruce Ferrell by Bruce Ferrell

Episode notes

Did you know that one in four American adults (more than 50 million people) are childfree or permanently childless? Yet, nearly every conversation about work, wealth, and legacy assumes parenthood as the default.

Dr. Jay Zigmont, PhD, MBA, CFP®, is the nation’s leading expert on this overlooked demographic. As the founder of Childfree Wealth® and Childfree Trust®, he has spent years researching how this massive population is redefining financial planning, estate law, and even consumer behavior.
