  • Summary

  • Alex catches up with fintech storyteller Mary Wisniewski, Editor-at-Large at Cornerstone Advisors and host of the podcast Money Isn't Everything. In this episode, they dive into Mary’s latest research on Gen Z's financial habits—spoiler alert: Gen Z is more anxious and open about money than any generation before. From spilling the tea on student loans to salaries on TikTok, Gen Z is reshaping how we talk about money while grappling with social media pressures and major gaps in basic financial knowledge. The conversation also dives into a hot topic at the other end of the spectrum: the rising focus on fintech for the elderly. Fintechs like Charlie are stepping up with products to protect older adults from fraud and financial insecurity. Will this shift be a game-changer? And what can both young and old teach us about the future of money? Plus, they tackle Synapse’s impact on trust in fintech. Are consumers becoming more cautious, or is the lure of instant access still too tempting to pass up? Tune in for a fun, frank discussion on fintech’s future, emphasizing the need for greater empathy, understanding, and innovative solutions to better serve all gens. 00:01:51 - Are the Kids Alright? 00:08:07 - The Gen Z Psyche 00:23:01 - The “Boom” Moment 00:37:16 - Synapse’s Impact on Consumer Trust Sign up for Alex’s Fintech Takes newsletter for the latest insightful analysis on fintech trends, along with a heaping pile of pop culture references and copious footnotes.
