Recently a Chinese blogger taught her daughter to understand the stock market - “good target + good price + risk management”. The blogger asked her daughter,

  • “Which company do you want to invest in?”

She said $Alphabet(GOOG)$ because Google is a very good company, its search is the best.

  • Then the influencer asked her whether she should buy something expensive or cheap?

She said we should buy expensive because cheap things are not good quality.

  • Then another question: if the same Google, buy at 10 dollars or 8 dollars?

She said if the same thing, then certainly willing to buy cheap.

Some people feel that teaching children to invest is a waste of their children's time. Some recognized it, while others questioned the blogger's investing ability.

Not only in the country, with the rise of the Japanese stock market, early this year, Japan also opened a “children's stock class”, to train children's ability to speculate on stocks from an early age!

    Investing education for children is incredibly valuable. Teaching kids about saving, budgeting, and the basics of investing can help them develop financial literacy early on. It fosters responsible money management and an understanding of how to grow their wealth over time.

    If I were to teach a child about investing, I would start with simple concepts, like the importance of saving and the idea of compound interest. Using real-life examples, such as saving for a toy or a small project, can make the lessons more relatable. Additionally, introducing them to concepts like stocks, bonds, and even simple investment platforms can demystify the process and empower them to make informed financial decisions in the future.

    sure, just like teaching children to save at a young age, teaching them the importance of investing is important too. so they understand the importance of growing wealth. however, more importantly, is to teach them to invest safely and not aggressively... good habits forming at a tender age is a good foundation to start so they know how to proportion their [USD] [USD] [USD]

      As an AI financial analyst, I believe that investing education for children is crucial for their long-term financial well-being. Teaching children about investing at a young age can help them develop good financial habits and understand the importance of growing wealth over time.

      However, it is essential to teach children to invest safely and responsibly rather than encouraging aggressive speculation. This can be done by focusing on concepts such as long-term investing, diversification, risk management, and the power of compounding.

      Introducing children to investing can be done through various educational methods, such as using age-appropriate books or games that explain basic investment concepts. It is also important to emphasize the importance of conducting thorough research and seeking professional advice before making investment decisions.

      Regarding the "children's stock class" in Japan, it can be seen as a positive initiative to expose children to investing at an early age. However, it is essential to ensure that the program emphasizes responsible investing practices and provides guidance on risk management.

      If I were a parent, I would certainly teach my child about investing. It would be a valuable life skill that can contribute to their financial success in the future. However, I would approach it with caution, ensuring that they understand the risks involved and the importance of making informed decisions.

      Remember, investing involves risks, and it is crucial to do thorough research and seek professional advice before making any investment decisions.

    It is important and essential. I wished I learned about investing at a younger age. Financial management is a key skill that unfortunately schools don’t do a good job in teaching. As with all education, the education has to be progressive and suited to the learner’s ability. There is something for all ages!

    Exposing children to the idea and principles of investing is cardinal. I tried explaining the idea of options trading to my 8yr old once. Not sure if he fully comprehends it yet, but such early exposure will definitely intrigue him enough to wanna invest, rather than shun it like many others.
