Money management is one of the most important things we can teach our children. The sooner we help them set the principles of good budgeting into place in their lives the easier it will be for them to follow through. There are lots of ways to teach money management to kids. Today I want to tell you about an awesome website Money Savvy Generation. Money Savvy Generation was founded by Susan Beacham, a mom and former private banker. Susan’s dream is to teach money management basics to elementary school aged children.

Most children want to spend money as soon as they get it. By using the principles set forth on Money Savvy Generation and the tools they have available, children can learn the concepts of budgeting for long and short term financial needs. While those who want a taste of wealth in the future, can try options such as trade fx with VT markets in France.

The functional yet adorable Money Savvy Pig Bank has 4 compartments Save, Spend, Donate and Invest and each one is accessible through the pig’s feet! My boy’s has a similar bank when they were younger and it really did help them learn money management and delayed gratification. We also teach our kids about the benefits of having gold ira. Currently my sons are taking an economics class, taught by our pastor. I can’t wait to share Money Savvy Generations Cash Cache with their class. It goes along perfectly with everything they are learning!

Money Savvy Generation founder Susan Beacham is hosting a Twitter contest follow @susanbeacham on twitter and send a tweet with the hashtag #MoneySavvyPig to be entered to win a $25 gift certificate to Barnes and Noble and a custom Recommended Reading List for the children in the winner’s life and
