22 Educating The Next Generation

I’m Miriam Neff and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan with Wise Women Managing Money.

M One of your wisest investments in your children is to teach them good financial habits. First, they learn from you without you saying a word.  They watch your actions.  What do you purchase? Are you impulsive, do you plan?  Do you give to your church and other good causes?  Do you save?  For what?

V When your children or grandchildren start to have earned income, they can save into a Roth IRA and you can match funds in that. Proverbs 12:11-14 speaks to the benefits of hard work and the gain from it.  Work provides food, housing, and many other good things on our life.

M God created us to work.  Work brings contentment.
