I have young children (4 and 2) and I really hope to find a simple but awesome way to demonstrate compound interest… I’m in my early 30s and have read multiple articles/books/etc on the subject, and I understood it, but now I’m actually seeing it in my investments – it’s just a totally different ballgame when you actually see the money (for me at least)

At what age do people think about retirement? Right, in their 40′s and 50′s. We have the responsibility to teach our children and grandchildren how money works. The responsibility to teach our children does not lie in our schools, it’s ours. The more we learn about money the more we can teach.

I think they should know that it’s okay to start small – even a little bit is still a start, and it’s a great habit to start.

Kids should know that delayed gratification reaps bountiful rewards down the road if the funds not spent are invested instead.

The earlier you start the longer compounding has to work in your favor.

Save, save, save – try to save way more than those around you. It’ll be worth it later in life.
