Money is one of the most familiar things in the world and one of the least understood. Most people use it every day without knowing where it came from, how it works, or why the systems around it are built the way they are.
Smile with Daniel explores the stories and mechanics behind money, finance, and economics through questions that start simply and go somewhere surprising. Why do we call money bucks? How do credit cards actually work? What is inflation, and why does it happen? Why does GPS cost nothing to use when it costs billions of dollars to run?
These are not abstract financial concepts. They are the hidden logic underneath things children already encounter, prices, banks, payments, and the systems that move money around the world quietly and constantly.
Here you’ll find every Smile with Daniel episode about money and economics, the kind of financial literacy that starts not with rules but with curiosity about how everything actually works.
