Would You Let Your Child Learn About Investing at Early Age?

Recently a Chinese blogger taught her daughter to understand the stock market - “good target + good price + risk management”. Some people feel that teaching children to invest is a waste of their children's time. Some recognized it.

I definitely will. Investing with the young one help them to kick start their investing since young and it’s good with the long run way for them.

If there’s one thing I wish I had started earlier, it’s investing. So, when it comes to my child, I’m determined to introduce them to the world of investing at an early age.  Why? Because time is the most powerful asset for any investor. The earlier you start, the more time you have to let your money compound, and the more opportunities you have to learn from mistakes. One of the first lessons I want to teach my child is the magic of compound interest. By investing small amounts consistently, their money can grow exponentially over time. If they can learn this early, they’ll understand the value of patience and how time can be their biggest ally in building wealth. Starting early also means they have more room to make mistakes, which is a crucial part of becoming a smart investor. It’

I have been teaching my kids fm young abt the value of investing. showing them the simple difference BTW leaving money in the bank n putting money in tiger vaults where they get more interest. simply I tell them to work hard n save as much as possible than start investing. instead of working hard n earn money, by investing let money work for you n they can retire earlier i.e FIRE

The sooner you can teach children the value of investing the better. It should be taught as a life skill at schools. 🤩

sure, just like teaching children to save at a young age, teaching them the importance of investing is important too. so they understand the importance of growing wealth. however, more importantly, is to teach them to invest safely and not aggressively... good habits forming at a tender age is a good foundation to start so they know how to proportion their [USD]  [USD]  [USD]  @HelenJanet @koolgal @LMSunshine @Shyon @GoodLife99 @Universe宇宙

investing is the most important skill that I learned in school.  every student should be required to invest as part of their education.  opening a stock broker account and buying at least 1 stock should be a mandatory requirement to graduate high school.  tax returns should be paid in stock shares, not cash. this is one way to force students to learn how to invest.

There are many things for children to learn and enjoy but not about investing at early age.

I think investing education for children is very important! For me , I will definitely teach my children to invest, but first  teach them how to save money [LOL] It is all about how you use your resources to make more  profit. I believe investing is a long journey.  “good target + good price + risk management” is not easy to master and most of us are still learning on it. So start early is a good idea [USD] [USD] [USD]

teaching children investing could only come with maturity in age. when they are too young to understand the need to gain financial independence through investing when everything is provided for them so easily, they will never be able to appreciate the lessons and have the motivation to learn. the question is.. are parents able to let go "in hunger"?

Investing education for children is incredibly valuable. Teaching kids about saving, budgeting, and the basics of investing can help them develop financial literacy early on. It fosters responsible money management and an understanding of how to grow their wealth over time. If I were to teach a child about investing, I would start with simple concepts, like the importance of saving and the idea of compound interest. Using real-life examples, such as saving for a toy or a small project, can make the lessons more relatable. Additionally, introducing them to concepts like stocks, bonds, and even simple investment platforms can demystify the process and empower them to make informed financial decisions in the future. @Tiger_comments

I think it is definitely good to share the knowledge one acquire with the kids so that they have a long snow way to snowball the ice. As for what to teach, i think it is good to disect how a Company make money and relate that to the daily life for ease of understanding and learning. @话题虎 @Tiger_Comments @TigerPicks

Teaching children about investing is one of the best gifts you can give them. I believe it's crucial to start financial literacy at a young age, and investing is a key component of that. I’d begin with the basics (saving and budgeting) and gradually introduce the concept of investing. Understanding how money can grow over time through compound interest or wise investments can shape their future decisions and habits. I’d also make it interactive. Instead of lecturing, I’d involve them by using apps, games, or even opening a small investment account for them. Real-world experiences are the best teacher. I think it’s important to show the risks too, so they don’t expect quick or guaranteed results. By instilling these principles early on, I believe I’d be setting them up for financial indepen

It is important and essential. I wished I learned about investing at a younger age. Financial management is a key skill that unfortunately schools don’t do a good job in teaching. As with all education, the education has to be progressive and suited to the learner’s ability. There is something for all ages!

Financial literacy, mortgages, investing and basic money management needs to make the school curriculum! Both my boys have small portfolio of an index and get to apply Warrens book approach to investing in a couple of company shares. youngest has the patience, eldest does not!
I would have liked to know enough to teach my children however I would have loved them to be taught at school.   They sure know how to spend money, so it would be great if they could learn how to earn it and retain it 🤣
