Have you had the talk? Perhaps you've talked to your kids about the birds and bees or drugs and alcohol. But what about money? For many parents, talking about money - how to make it, save it, invest it, think about it - is an even harder one to have. So, what should we be teaching our kids about money and when should we start? Marketplace Money’s Tess Vigeland will host this provocative and entertaining evening at The Winningstad Theatre on November 9th from 7:00-8:30pm. Should you pay an allowance? How do you discuss the recession? And when should your children learn about credit cards?

Guests will include:

*Just added*
*Christopher Walla is the guitarist for the band, Death Cab for Cutie. He is a musician, producer, and Portland resident. He’ll share his experience with money—the good, the bad, the song-worthy…and what he wish he knew at a young age.

*Just added*
*Mike Richardson is the President and founder of Dark Horse Comics, the award-winning international publishing house he founded in 1986. He has produced films such HELLBOY II: THE GOLDEN ARMY, MY NAME IS BRUCE, and THE MYSTERY MEN as well as films based on several of his own creations, including THE MASK and TIMECOP. Mike lives with his wife Karie and their three daughters in Lake Oswego, Oregon.

*Beth Kobliner: a personal finance expert, magazine columnist and commentator. She’s author of the NY Times best-seller Get a Financial Life: Personal Finance in Your Twenties and Thirties and appears regularly on Marketplace Money, including a segment called “Beth and Becca,” where she talks money with her 14-year old daughter Rebecca.

* Performers from Oregon Children's Theatre's Young Professional improv troupe, Impulse and actors from the Theater’s current production of the play, "Charlie & the Chocolate Factory."

*Skits and sketches from members of Portland’s Live Wire Radio comedy troupe. Live Wire produces a one-hour variety show recorded in front of a live audience for radio.

*Two essay winners from the Portland School District’s writing contest for 6-8 graders. The question is: Parents sometimes don’t agree with their children about how money should be spent. Tell about a time when you earned money to buy something that your parents would not buy for you.
