I've just switched my new freshman in high school, to being in charge of his own lunch money for school. He's responsible to writing his own checks when the school needs more lunch money in his account. I'm going to look into this material, especially for my younger kids.

Dealing with customers, billing, collections at that age taught me more than I can remember. Bought myself a Commodore 64 too!

I like the four categories: giving,investing,saving, and spending. I cannot say that I agree with the percentage distribution (and that is okay) but I do like the comment that "Kids will grow resentful to the plan if they are not allowed to spend some of their money."

I only wish I was as savvy as her when I was her age. Think of the wealth I could have built, and the debt I could have avoided! <br> @Mark: It's not a bad idea. When she is able to crank out some full-length posts I may do just that. And of course, with earned income she'll be eligible to invest a little of that money in a Roth IRA! <br> @DDFD: Great idea - and she may do well with a site like Etsy, or even eBay. Cultivate that entrepreneurial streak now while she's young. @Gypsie: My daughter is almost ten years-old – going on twenty! I only wish I was as savvy as her when I was her age.
