Create Financial Choices
Like most parents, we want our kids to accomplish a comfortable manner of living but we (parents) need to teach the various options available to acquire a pleasant lifestyle.
I grew up in a single-parent household with nine (9) siblings. Our mother made tremendous sacrifices for us because she wanted us (her kids) to be successful both educationally as well as financially. Because our mother wasn’t taught financial literacy, she instilled in us what she knew, get an education (high school) work for someone for twenty to thirty years, and retire.
Understanding financial choices is very important, a person who saves $10 per week will do better than a person who saves nothing. Owning a home has greater benefits than renting. Investing in the stock market over time yields great returns financially. These concepts will provide choices that others want to have.
If we truly want our kids to do better than us begin educating them as early as possible about financial choices. My mother wasn’t taught financial literacy; however, becoming aware of the many options related to investing is at our fingertips (computers) and books…… let’s make that difference for the next generation with financial awareness.
