Short videos. Vetted guidance. Designed for real life.

What Better Financial Education Does Differently

  • Your finances are not about numbers on a page. When you’re celebrating; when you’re hungry and tired; when you’re in love - your thoughts and feelings are lived through what you do with your resources: your time, energy, and money. 

    Cashtoons gives you the big picture on how you can be intentional about your money habits in ways that actually apply to your life.

    What do you need to know, and what’s just noise? No search engine has lived it, but everyone at Cashtoons has. We wanted a better way to get wallet wise, so we made it.

    1. The first reason not to trust random “free” sources: the “F” word. That’s right - Fiduciary. We uphold a fiduciary standard, which means your best interests are our only priority. No hidden agenda; you come first, not financial products or sponsors. 

      Always ask anyone who gives you financial guidance, “How do you get paid?” There is a good chance that it’s not about what you learn, it’s about what they can sell. 

    2. TikTok shorts and AI generated answers are confident and convincing, even when they are wrong.

      We provide vetted, informed financial guidance from an accredited financial counselor. No subscription needed; no personal information sold; no buy-now-pay-later options.

  • Curated and distilled, Cashtoons gives the need-to-know info without all the rest. It doesn’t have to take a lot of time to be money smart.

    Bite-sized doesn’t mean dumbed-down. Espresso is not weaker than coffee, just because there is less of it.

    If you want to get money savvy as quickly as possible, so you can get back to what you love doing, we’re here for you.

    1. It’s about how you learn. Neurotypical or neurodivergent. English-language-learner or native speaker. - We got you.

      Whether remembering and applying info or practicing a new skill or habit, our shorts are designed to help you retain and use the need-to-know guidance.

    2. You are busy. Everything is urgent. Cashtoons was created with stolen moments in mind. Two minutes on the bus - perfect. Three minutes waiting in line - you’re a step closer to financial freedom.

“Cashtoons is really about getting it down... to the short film level... on money basics and some not so money basics. It’s really a very interesting mix.”

“There’s a reason the lessons we’ve learned for centuries are told in stories. Stories are easy to remember and carry a message with them.”

Taxes, Teens, and Gig Work - The 1099

What I did and would do differently.

Most first jobs don't come with a tax tutorial. If you're getting paid as an independent contractor — think gig work, freelancing, babysitting — the rules are completely different.
