“Children should first understand the basics of finances before learning to invest.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Start with saving if possible part of their “allowance”, and learning to delay gratification<\/strong>. These skills should be taught, practiced, and used before moving on to investments.

It is more productive to start talking to children about investing only when they\u2019re in their \u201ctweens\u201d \u2014 between the ages of 8 and 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
