We have liftoff.

Today the gears are starting to turn for most people back at work. Most people do this not because they love it but because they have to. All of us would love to get to the point where the previous statement is reversed.



To get to the point where you do what you love and not because you have to do it to survive, starts with something that you can't choose, your parents. Why do I say this? there are 3 reasons:

1. They have plenty of money and you don't have to work to support yourself, ever.


2. They encourage you from a young age to do what you love and not what society demands.


3. They provide you with an education that enables you to find a good job.

The first two points are obvious. The third is the one most people have to deal with.

What we can take from what I am saying is that if you are a parent, you have a huge responsibility. Schools don't provide proper financial management education and there will always be a lot of pressure from society to keep up with Mr & Mrs Jones. You as a parent must either encourage your children to do what they love or if they love nothing in particular, make sure that they can find a proper job one day and instil in them from a young age the discipline and knowledge of sound financial management.
