I was lucky to help at an event Jamie McIntyre took for Children and money.
The event was lots of fun the speakers were inspirational, activities for the children were engaging.
I was thinking to myself it I only had the same access to information, I would be further ahead. But and this is a big but, like many of the kids at the event, I did not understand the value of money. My parents was where I got most of my financial learning from, had no idea, and every investment they took, they saw it as a huge risk to their finances. It is, just they did not know where to start, and what was there risk to reward levels so they knew the return they would have for their investment.
They did invest and made losses, as they did not know how to cover their risks. So they taught their kids scared investment strategies. Not good.
One day I found Jamie McIntyre’s Homestudy program on line. I thought at the time it was a gamble I was taking.
I ordered the program after watching the free DVD. Even watching the 80 hours of information, it took courage to carry out my wealth plan and put it all into action.
Do you have the courage to make money? Because you taking action with your finances, is the only way you will be able to show your children how to invest.
