how to talk to your teenager about personal finance

"If you have children or younger relatives - particularly teenagers - then this thought probably crossed your mind at one point: “if only they would do some of the things I wish I had done!” Maybe you always dreamed of visiting Mongolia or taking a year off after high school to backpack around Europe. Perhaps you hope your teenaged children will take the leaps you never took. The most important thing you can do is to give them the basic skills to succeed in life. One of the best ways to do this is to teach the teenagers in your life how to invest."

I think the most important thing you can teach your children is to put money in the bank. Spend some but most in the bank.
