How To Teach Children Money Management

 In a world where every aspect of life is moving rapidly, it becomes imperative for all of us to catch the pace of it. As a parent, your primary responsibility is to ingrain life virtues in your children early to prepare them for the world. Additionally, teaching them the basics of finance and financial literacy can significantly contribute to building their confidence. 

Financial literacy that begins at an early stage helps to develop a rich value system whereby they learn the importance of what they possess. They can be taught the difference between necessary and unnecessary expenses and how to prioritize spending. Financial know-how helps the kids to make better monetary decisions and inculcate the habit of saving and investing in the right direction.

But one must avoid risking hard-earned money to create the finance lessons learned, for this simulation games come into the picture.

Gone are the days when a person has pushed aside for an idea to start the business, the main question in the old times was, who would finance your idea?

BeFit For Life

Buddha made us understand the importance of health with this quote, “To keep the body in good health is a duty, otherwise we shall not be able to keep the mind strong and clear.” 

Keeping oneself safe from all the diseases and ill health is the top priority of an individual but due to certain conditions we fall ill or incur a disease that needs to be treated. If the treatment process is smooth and hassle-free then the recovery is also faster and medicines and procedures also work effectively on the body. When most of us have health insurance still there are many things we still have to pay for.  According to the news article, we all end up spending more in OPDs for our visits in routine health check-ups. So having OPD expenses covered in an insurance plan would be a great idea.

 In last post we discussed about paying taxes and how nation will be benefitted by it. In this post let’s focus on reasons you, as individual will be benefitted. Well this time too I have 3 main reasons to pay taxes and feel happy about it.

Quick Bank Loans: If you pay your taxes on time and have a good credit score then your loans related to home or car or personal needs will be approved in matter of a wink, else you need to make empty rounds to bank, just to make them believe that you are genuine person and you are not defaulter of nation, who would run away with their money.
So Pay taxes and go ahead in your life with your dreams be it luxury car or well furnished apartment.

Easy Visa Approvals: After long years your destination is calling you, and you rush to visa office for clearance to fly and in midst of your dreams, visa officer asks you about your IT returns and you come to reality and curse the moments you didn’t pay taxes. Well if you need a smooth process of visa approval, keep all your IT return papers also intact, then fly to your destination in real not in thoughts.

Peaceful Sleep: Last but not least, peaceful sleep is for what each one of us our working hard. Paying taxes pinches each one for a time but I surely can assure one can have a peaceful time after that. You can be proud of yourself that you have done a good deed.
