TIP 3:
Our behaviour has a long lasting impact on our children’s money personalities; it affects how they spend, save, invest, borrow, give.
Money lessons begin at home.To be a financial role model for your children, learn the basics of money matters to be able to guide them. Here’s one lesson.
“More money doesn’t make you a better person. The amount of money you have has nothing to do with the content of your character.
The shoes you wear, the brand on your clothes, the type of car your parents drive, the size of your house, all have nothing to do with how smart, sensible, kind, fair or respectful you are.
Equating “stuff” with our self-worth is an illness. Inoculate your kids against this virus!” (metronews.ca)
• What example are you setting?
• What lessons do you teach and reinforce each day through your actions?
• Are you dishonest?
• Are you corrupt?
• Is bribery your way of life?
• Do you lack integrity?
Action speaks louder than words! Your children are watching and learning. Be intentional about instilling the right values.
