Category: 3 – SHELF it (All Categories are 1 – Read ASAP!, 2 – BUY it!, 3 – SHELF it, 4 – SOMEDAY it)

Comments: A nice read.

Insights that resonated: I think the biggest insight from the book was to give kids a real experience with money by giving them an allowance and having them split it into “give,” “save,” and “spend” jars.

You can then get creative by introducing concepts like compound interest to them.

It isn’t something we’ve operationalized yet – but we definitely will.
