What Should You Educate Your Children On First?

Posted on May 31, 2018 by ben

As parents, we all want our children to turn out well. We want them to be happy and healthy and live the best lives possible. So we educate them. We try to guide them and put them on the right paths. However, we often focus this on education and not so much on the wider life skills we all need. Like money. So, it’s time to change that. Let’s look at a couple of topics you might like to start off with.

The Value Of Money

This one is a biggie. We all want our children to really understand what money is and what it does. With credit cards and online banking, it’s so much harder to really understand that. So ensuring that your children understand how hard it can be to get money and what life costs is really important.

The Importance Of Saving

Kids don’t always save from the offset. They get excited about having money and they want to be able to spend it. With materialism thrown in our faces at all times, this is something that you will want to fight against. Talking to them about the importance of saving should help you here.

The Consequences Of Debt

And finally, you could always go in with a biggie – the ‘why you shouldn’t get into debt’ talk. You can use these celebrities as an example of what not to do. Debt can be scary – but so easy to get into. So it’s often best that you make them aware of this from an early age.

About Us

My good friend Ben started this site many years ago.  Ben said this about himself, “am a follower of Christ, a rabid computer geek, small business owner, and breaker of things. He is married way above his station in life and has three wonderful children who have made driving him insane their mission in life.”

Well back in 2019, Ben suddenly passed away from cancer and he asked me to continue the site. I like Ben, am a follower, a computer geek, a small business owner, and the father of 5 great children.

I miss Ben everyday but run this site in his honor. Thanks for visiting and enjoy!
