I am a teacher and I see my students have the most extravagant mobile gadgets at their age. What kind of financial literacy do you think students as young as Primary 1 should get exposed to?

I don't think there is anything I can do to change what their parents choose to give them, but what can I do to teach them to not be a frivolous spender?

You cant tell logic to small kids. They only care about fun.😆

Tell the student, put a coin in the soil and water it everyday and at the 7th day later money will grow.😀

Lesson of the day: Money dont grow on trees. Saving is important.
