Two countries. Two financial realities. One family to raise.
When part of your family lives abroad, or when you have recently arrived in Ecuador from another country, the financial conversations you need to have with your children are more complex than the standard guides address.
Simple Budget has resources designed specifically for this situation. Not generic financial education with a migrant label attached — actual tools that address the real dynamics of cross-border family finances.

When the money conversation crosses a border
Children in migrant families often grow up with a complicated relationship with money. Remittances arrive and disappear without explanation. The family in one country lives differently from the family in another. Conversations about saving feel abstract when the financial reality shifts between contexts.
These are not problems that a standard financial education guide resolves. They require specific tools, specific conversations, and specific frameworks for teaching children to navigate multiple financial realities at once.
Tools built for cross-border family finances
Each resource in the migrant package addresses a specific challenge that standard financial education guides do not cover.
The Remittance Conversation Guide
A step-by-step framework for explaining to children of different ages where remittance money comes from, what it represents, and how to think about it responsibly. Covers ages six through fifteen.
Dual-System Financial Map
A practical worksheet and guide for families navigating two economic systems. Helps children understand that money works differently in different places, and that this is something to understand rather than be confused by.
Cross-Border Saving Framework
A structured approach to involving children in saving decisions that have a cross-border dimension. Includes conversation guides, goal-setting tools, and age-appropriate explanations of why saving looks different for their family.
Your family's financial situation is specific. So are our resources.
