Teach Kids About Money the Way You Wish Your Parents Had Taught You

MINNEAPOLIS - April 3, 2013 - PRLog -- In 2008, financial markets were collapsing and Bret and Tracie Shroyer saw many adults lacked basic money management skills. Determined their kids would be different, they decided it was their responsibility to teach their kids about money.  At ages 7 & 8 the kids were put on a full budget and became responsible for their own money management.  

Investing in Your 401k Kid: From Zero to Little Financial Genius in Five Easy Steps is the result of the Shroyers’ hard work.  After tweaking their systems, processes and the lessons they wanted their kids to learn, they started to see real results.  And so did their family and friends.

“When people first heard about our plan to put our pre-teen children on a full-blown budget, they thought we were nuts.  But now that we’re six years into the process, we are constantly asked for more details.  Other parents recognize a gratitude in our kids they don’t see in their own and realize our kids have more financial savvy that most young adults,” commented Tracie Shroyer.

Investing in Your 401k Kid isn’t just another book about money theory that teaches of abundance and monetary mindset.  It focuses on practical examples and real life stories of what happened when the Shroyers implemented their plan.  Worksheets and spreadsheets help other parents get started quickly.  Investing in Your 401k Kid teaches parents:
