@lizbettalksmoney: First full week back to school = back to their regular “job.” 🎒💵 I knew early on that I wouldn’t pay my kids for chores, but I absolutely wanted to teach them financial literacy! As soon as my oldest started school, it clicked for me. THIS is where I need a big part of their energy and focus to go, so why not pay them for that effort? It gave them an age-appropriate way to understand that money is earned, while giving me the opportunity to teach them what to actually DO with that money once it hits their hands. And years later, it’s still what works for our family! Do you tie allowance to anything in your house? 👇 #allowance #familyfinances #familybudgeting #backtoschool #allowancemoney
My kiddos were struggling with behavior, so I implemented a monthly “bonus” based on good behavior days 😅

I just started this with my 4 year old and we are loving it. I am struggling to find the right words and the best way to explain things to her at this age for her to understand

Genuine question because I just came from another video that popped up on my fyp, but why do you have them set money aside for “charity”?

I'd like to start this for the same reason when my little one starts school. How did you describe to them that it was about effort and behaviour at school?

I’ve implemented your style of allowance since the start of August and we are loving it. I’ve actually been surprised how into saving they are. I started an XP system for their chores because I wanted the mindset we all contribute because we all live here and not be tied to getting money. Their XP gets them experiences instead of toys or prizes. I’m curious how you handle chores and responsibilities in your home

Do you have them learn chores?

Something we thought about adding is performance reviews either quarterly or twice a year. Then depending on my son grades and behavior he gets a bonus. Two things give him something to maybe look forward to. And as an adult I still struggle with is performance reviews. In my 15+ years of working I got one bad review (this was at the beginning of my career and I was still learning the job) and now I am so nervous when going to them. Thought maybe this would help him in the future 😁

How old do you start? Do you have a system someone can implement including materials, etc? I was never taught myself and I want to do better for my kids
