Hey folks, I’ve been mulling over something lately and wanted to bring it to the community for some real talk. As people deeply involved in trading and investing, we’ve all seen the highs and lows of the financial world. So here’s the question: Would you let your child learn about investing at an early age? Why It Might Be a Good Idea • Financial Literacy from the Get-Go: Teaching kids about money early can demystify finances. They’ll understand saving, spending, and the value of a dollar long before they have to make big financial decisions. • Harnessing the Power of Time: We all know the magic of compound interest. Even small investments made early can grow substantially over time. • Building Responsibility: Managing a small portfolio or even a simple savings plan can teach kids about re

Yes, I do share with my children about how the stock market works and telling them  about my investments and rationale for buying them. It is good to let them know and learn about stock market movements and why people want to invest in the stock markets. I also told them about different types of people invest differently with their own set of investing tactics and styles. There are investors, looking for long term n short term gains, punters and gamblers etc... I believe this book will help you and your child have a better understanding on how to invest. So, happy teaching your kiddies...

Children can start learning about investments at an early age. Recommend children to read “Warren Buffett - Book for Kids”. Let children discover how a young boy with a passion for numbers and a knack for making smart decisions transformed into one of the world's most celebrated investors. This book will inspire young readers to dream big and think wisely about their own financial futures. It will empower young readers to start thinking like little investors.

I remember I once went to the community center with my 9-year old daughter to browse through some holiday short courses.  She chose 'Business  Concepts for Young Children, 8-12 year old'.   After the 3-hour course, she excitedly explained to me 'capital outlays', 'compound interest', 'risk management' with some business case studies using simple hand made charts, graphs and cardboard tools.   I was pleasantly surprised how much knowledge she gained through fun learning.    Today my daughter is in her early 30s and is a business entrepreneur.   I suppose there's no model answer whether to teach the young children 'investment' or 'business' or any subject.   Ultimately it boils down to the children's aptitude and interest.     I'm glad I

thank you for this topic. I am going to try the jars method with my 4 year old. Christmas is coming, great timing to save up for gifts ❤️ *Jar 1: SAVE* - For short-term goals (e.g., toys, treats) - Encourages saving habits - Can be used for emergency funds *Jar 2: SPEND* - For everyday expenses (e.g., allowance, small purchases) - Teaches responsible spending - Helps prioritize needs over wants *Jar 3: SHARE* - For charitable giving (e.g., donations, helping others) - Fosters empathy and generosity - Encourages kindness and community involvement

Should Your Child Learn Investing at an Early Age? In today’s world of financial uncertainty and evolving economies, one of the most valuable life skills is financial literacy. Many parents are beginning to question whether teaching children about investing at an early age could set them up for a more secure future. The thought of allowing a child to venture into the complex world of stocks, bonds, and mutual funds may seem daunting, but it’s worth considering the benefits of early exposure to investing principles. Why Teach Children About Investing? 1. Developing Financial Literacy Early Understanding money goes beyond just knowing how to save and spend. Investing introduces key financial concepts such as risk management, compound interest, and long-term wealth creation. If children

Take care girl, you can do it ☺️🩵.

Children are more than capable of understanding the concepts behind investments and do their own investing, if only they are taught. It’s generally recommended to teach your child about investments after they are already familiar with the concept of savings. According to experts, ages 5 to 15 are the most crucial years for teaching children about investments and to lay a good foundation. However, every child is different with different learning styles. Investments can be a tricky topic for children to understand, so it’s best to play things by ear and go at a pace that you and your child is comfortable with! Thanks @Tiger_comments @icycrystal

Fun and Learning at McDonald’s Shark Slide Event$McDonald's(MCD)$   Start by bringing your child to a free event at McDonald’s, like the shark slide event, where kids can exchange points for exciting activities. Make this a fun day out while subtly introducing the concept of points as a form of currency. Let them see how they can “trade” points for a fun experience. This will help them understand the basics of using resources to get something valuable in return. McDonald’s Smart Promotion Strategy As you both enjoy the event, point out how McDonald’s is cleverly using this event to attract parents and children from all over the country. Explain that McDonald’s is offering fun for free, but at the same time, they’

I started giving my children allowance weekly in lower primary school and then change to monthly as they are more mature, P4 above they can save and buy what they need. The boy buy and sell bike parts, when he liked bicycle, then he started buying gold from his part of his saving. The girl save money and open account at tiger, i knew tiger from her hahaha.

🌟🌟🌟Warren Buffett said that it is never too early whether it is teaching kids the value of a dollar, the difference between needs and wants or the value of saving - these are all concepts that kids encounter at a very early age, so it's best to help them understand it. When my son was only 5, he wanted me to buy a new toy car.  I asked him how he thought I was going to pay for it.  He said "You just tap that plastic thing and you get money." To help my kids develop financial literacy, I explained that "needs" are things that our family must have to survive,  while " wants" are things that are nice to have but our family can live without. I believe it is good to start money conversations early and keeping them positive.  I try to integrate money conversations i

Starting to invest at an early age offers several significant advantages for children: -Compound Growth: Early investments benefit from compound interest, allowing money to grow substantially over time. -Financial Literacy: Learning about investing fosters financial independence and discipline, helping children understand the difference between saving and investing. -Risk Management: can develop a comfort with risk, learning to navigate market fluctuations without immediate pressure. -Long-Term Wealth: Early investment habits can lead to greater wealth accumulation and financial security in adulthood. -Goal Alignment: Investing helps children align their financial goals with aspirations, such as education or future purchases. Encouraging early investing cultivates a lifelong positive relat

The stock markets are very risky for children to learn the ways to invest. Many children become speculators/ gamblers if they aren't disciplined in their behaviour after they reach the age of 18. I think the probability of winning is about 20% for novice players. In case they are lucky to win in their initial investment, their confidence is s multiply many times n they may decideff to invest on credit. If the market turns the other way,  they may incur heavy loses n even become financial delinquent. Their parents may have to foot the bills outstanding. Hence I will not teach my children to learn investments

I start to teach my son about money matter when he was very young. I tell him that saving and investing is very important in order to achieve FIRE faster. I also buy some financial book for him to read and after reading he told me he want to become study finance in the future. ☺️ @Tiger_comments @SR050321 @HelenJanet @MHh @koolgal
