When I was in grade school my teacher had a bank come to the school every week so we could have a bank account and put our allowances that our parents gave up in our accounts. I learned to save. When I got to highschool, we were taught home economics and mechanics. We were taught how to balance check books, budgets and how to cook and make stuff. In college, everyone was required to take a course called, "Marriage and Family Life". We got no credit for it, but we were required to understand the responsibilities of family budgets and the commitment to marriage. I would argue, that to start learning about money when your a kid, makes you a better adult because you have learned early on the importance and responsibilities of money. I would even argue, that all schools should be teaching their kids about their personal finances. At school and at home. Parents have the responsibility also. Make time!Through the month of April and May I am writing blogs on financial terms and we all should know, taxes and personal finances. You can find them at: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/michaellodge Follow me there, you don't have to sign up for a subscription, it would be nice :-) but go there and read and get financial terms knowledge to be able to teach your kids on. And you need to know it also.My business website: www.lodge-co.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
