A 35 to 45 minute Family Money Story Interview that shows you what your kids are absorbing about money — and a personalized Blueprint to change it.
I was the kid everyone said would figure it out. I didn't, until I was 38. Now I'm doing this work with my own son in real time. I had to build a system that bypasses the defenses entirely. It's the system I now teach other parents.
Directly from parents and teens in the Outsmart the System program.
“Concepts I got to learn in my 40s that I wish I had prior... His standard and baseline is way higher than mine was at that age. There's no price on that. That's priceless.”
“It's even changing the way we communicate... now she's not defensive about it. It actually makes her stop and think and reflect... and then she can come to her own conclusions and it's not dad giving her the conclusion.”
“A huge part of this has just been a shared language with my son. I like to say it's sort of like we have our own secret handshake.”
“This isn't just a 'kids' program' — it's a family upgrade.”
“When we were enrolling, he had a lot of frivolous spending habits, and now he's actually asking me questions... spending his personal time researching financial options to free himself.”
“I kind of looked at it as my mental gym. Like going to the gym to lift, to make my body better... I'm learning principles and frameworks to improve my mind.”
Outsmart the System is the book behind everything I teach. Rated 4.5 stars on Amazon. Real world skills and lifelong impact, for kids growing up in a world that trains them to follow.
“Clear, practical advice for raising kids who can think independently, manage money wisely, and adapt in a world that often teaches conformity.”
“More than a book — it's a blueprint for raising sovereign children who know how to think, not just what to think.”
“A great read for parents who want their kids to learn about money and wealth in a different way. Also to learn how to communicate with your kids so you can start to have these conversations.”
You don't need a breakthrough. You need a sequence.
The Interview

What you walk away with
If the Blueprint doesn't give you a clear, actionable direction, email us and the $67 comes back. No questions, no fine print. And if you want it, the next 30 minutes with Jay are on him.
The interview runs on our secure platform at deepwork.outsmartthesystem.org — same company, Outsmart the System LLC.
The real interview, right from your phone — it ends with a Blueprint built for your family, not a generic PDF.
You want your kids ready for real life, not just good at school. It does not reliably teach money, responsibility, or judgment under pressure.
If you’ve ever thought “my kids are smart, but I’m not sure they’re ready for real life,” this interview is for you.
In the next 35 to 45 minutes, you’ll see the pattern you inherited, and what your kids are absorbing.
The Blueprint
Below is an excerpt from a sample Blueprint. The family shown is a composite and the names are invented — your Blueprint is built entirely from your own words.
Your Blueprint continues — 1,200 to 1,500 words, built from your own interview. Nothing generic. Nothing you didn't say.
The most recent parent to complete the interview rated her Blueprint 10 out of 10 for how custom it felt.
Questions
No. It's a guided interview about money — what you learned growing up and what you're passing on. No diagnosis, no treatment. If something heavy comes up, the interview makes room for it and moves at your pace. It doesn't replace therapy, and it doesn't pretend to.
No. This is for you. Your kid never has to know it happened. The patterns transfer through what you do, not what they're taught — so the work starts on your side of the table.
Doesn't matter. They're not in the room. The interview is about your money story, not theirs, and the first moves in your Blueprint are things you do — not things they have to comply with.
1,200 to 1,500 words built from your own answers. The pattern you carry and who handed it to you. What each of your kids is absorbing right now. And the specific first moves to make this week, in plain language. The sample above shows the structure.
The book is the framework. The Blueprint is your family. The book can't quote your own words back to you.
Yes — your answers are used for one thing: building your Blueprint. They're never sold and never shared. At the end of the interview you can ask to leave anything out of the final report, and it stays out.
One 35 to 45 minute interview. Your personalized Blueprint right after, plus a private session with Jay (first 20 families). One payment of $67.
