Comments on: Money Camp For Kids http://www.accumulatingmoney.com/money-camp-for-kids/ Because wealth is better than poverty, if only for financial reasons.

Often parents themselves are fiscally irresponsible (eg.: taking loans for personal consumption), inculcating a poor fiscal discipline amongst their children. While each one gets university degrees in his/her field of profession to scale heights, our education system doesn't make it compulsory for kids to be financially aware. Personal Finance cannot be an elective!! Regards, Zak. I think it’s a great idea to teach kids financial literacy from an early age.

My kids? I expect myself to educate them about everything I know about money when the time comes, so I have a hard time imagining spending that money for a service that I should be able to provide on my own. Now, I would love to learn how you teach the mentality without having them boomerang in the other direction like my friend has in reaction to her frugal and bargain-seeking mother.
