Kids and Money

This summer, while your kids are out of school, I highly encourage you to sign them up for free financial literacy classes at Wealthy Habits.Your kids will learn all about money and taxes and all things financial. I’ve been at two of these courses and am amazed at how much the kids learn about the Rule of 72, filling out a W2, assets, liabilities, credit cards and more. I so wish my kids had had classes like these to learn about finance.
The Rest of the Story
You probably heard about this story in the New York Times that reported, once again, that college is worth the expense, despite some drawbacks. Take a moment to look at NPR’s “devil’s advocate” approach to the Times story. Among its points, NPR informs that “some 34 million American adults attended college but have no degree to show for it. That's huge, compared with the 41 million Americans who have a bachelor's as their terminal degree.” Interesting and scary reading.
