    — The blond toddler sits comfortably in his high chair, a tiny keyboard toy resting in front of him as soft light fills the room. His bright eyes look directly at you with an uncanny mix of innocence and worldly awareness. Though physically a toddler, his demeanor is calm and expressive. —

    A deep, raspy, masculine voice emerges confidently from his small mouth:

    “Hey… yeah. Nice to see you here. So… investing. Sounds scary, right?”

    — He wiggles slightly, his balance a little wobbly, but his tone stays clear. —

    “Look — I may be in a high chair, but I’ve seen grown‑ups freak out about charts, numbers, and all that stuff.”

    — A low, warm chuckle vibrates in his chest. —

    “But here’s the thing: it doesn’t have to be so confusing. Tools can help. Planning can help. And you? You can make smart choices.”

    — He taps the toy keyboard with a tiny hand, eyes focused and thoughtful. —

    “So let’s keep this simple. No panic. No noise. Just learning, growing… and maybe making the most out of your future.”

    — His voice remains calm, personable, and confident — not arrogant. —

    “Stick with me for a moment. I’ll show you the basics… and we’ll have some fun while we’re at it.”

    — He gives a soft, reassuring smile — toddler innocence wrapped in relaxed confidence — completing the 60‑second greeting. —
