When we were growing up, we were taught math, but we were not taught about money. Our parents tried to teach us about money. While my parents were very thrifty and money smart, I must admit that I was the opposite of my parents. My sisters were different.
I am now much more more money smart like my parents, but it happened later than I would like to admit. Money. We all love money. We love to spend money. We don’t like to save money. I think it is realy important to teach your kids about money when they are young.
Tangerine Bank is hosting a twitter party to discuss just that. Robin Taub will be their guest expert on the chat. Robin Taub is a chartered professional accountant (CPA, CA) and currently works as a financial literacy consultant, speaker and blogger.
