Parents and children ften face the challenges f mney. Cmmn tpics include setting pcket mney, learning t save, and deciding t buy expensive things. The gal f mst parents is t teach their kids hw t deal with mney wisely. The gal f mst kids is getting mney t spend. Hw can families achieve these gals?
The Tidier family in Denver fund the best way t teach abut mney was t let their kids make sme mney. Their sn, Ryan, 17, has been watering in the garden since he was 8. He wned his wn tls with the help f his parents. Nw he has saved $7,800. Besides, he bught a bike and a wnderful sund system. And he is ging t buy a car next year.
Mney skills are an imprtant part f becming a successful adult. David Brady manages a cmpany tward children and yung adults. “They shuldn’t be always thinking f spending mney.” Brady warns. Instead, they shuld understand basic rules fr making mney, saving mney, and managing mney.
