Wise Financial and Investment Education for Children... Learning Money Principles Through Real Life
π Summary
The rich get richer, poor get poorer phenomenon intensifies due to the structure of asset price increases driven by the mastery of creating attractive products or services and the growth in money supply. To overcome this, long-term perspective investing is essential, and children need practical financial education that cultivates ‘purchases with purpose’ and insight into economic phenomena.
π Why It Matters! (Meaning and Context)
In a capitalist society, the rich get richer, poor get poorer phenomenon is unavoidable. Most ordinary people inevitably experience a relative decline in wealth ranking due to currency devaluation. Understanding this structure that deepens wealth concentration and recognizing the necessity of wise investment that secures both labor income and capital income is crucial. Crucially, children need education that goes beyond simple savings or stock investments to cultivate economic insight—the ability to recognize the value of ‘attractive products or services that make people open their wallets’.
π₯ Key Takeaways
1️⃣ Redefining Wealth and Causes of Deepening Inequality
- Wealthy individuals are not simply those with large amounts of money, but are redefined as “people who create and sell products or services compelling enough that people willingly open their wallets.”
- The two main causes deepening the wealth gap are as follows.
- The ability to create compelling products/services becomes more skilled and strengthened the more it is practiced, further concentrating wealth.
- The continuous increase in the money supply inflates asset values, creating a structural problem where the wealthy, who already possess the ability to generate income, capture an even larger share of this increased money.
2️⃣ The Uncomfortable Truth About Money Supply Growth and Investment
- Money supply growth impacts ordinary people's lives, deepening polarization, and creates a situation where investment is essential to maintain one's position among the wealthy.
- Investing requires consistent effort, and one must recognize that it becomes an additional, inconvenient task that must be done, even if one wants to focus on their main career in life.
- There is no royal road to investing. The most realistic and viable approach is long-term investing: holding good assets over the long term without being swayed by greed and fear or reacting to short-term fluctuations.
3️⃣ The Core of Children's Financial Education: Establishing Insight and Values
- Beyond simply encouraging them to save their allowance or setting up a stock account, it is crucial to help them develop financial awareness and values through everyday life experiences.
- The key is to help them realize that ‘everything happens for a reason (or may have a reason)’.
- Example: Guide them to infer and judge for themselves the reasons behind the price difference between seemingly similar ballpoint pens or the variation in the price of jajangmyeon.
- Children should develop an eye for recognizing items of true value and personally experience the difference between unnecessary spending and saving.
- Even in areas children enjoy (cooking, soccer, etc.), expose them to non-technical aspects like the meaning of cooking or the value of teamwork, along with economic perspectives, to support their growth into happy professionals.
4️⃣ The Purpose and Importance of Studying Economics
- The primary purpose of studying economics is to avoid making foolish decisions and to cultivate the judgment (insight) needed to recognize occasional major crises and respond effectively.
- Past economic crisis cases tend to repeat (with variations), so it's crucial to know what happened in the past.
- Stock investing involves extremely high volatility at the starting point, so one must adopt a long-term perspective, study economics beforehand, and develop the judgment to make buy/sell decisions during crisis situations.
π To summarize
Wealth polarization inevitably deepens due to differences in the ability to create attractive products/services and the asset price inflation structure caused by increased money supply. To overcome this gap and avoid falling behind in the wealth rankings, investment to generate capital income alongside labor income is essential. The royal road to investment is overcoming greed and fear and holding good assets with a long-term perspective. To achieve this, one must cultivate insight to recognize crises and make rational decisions through daily, consistent economic study. This is why economic and investment education should begin early in life.
Financial education for children should focus less on merely emphasizing saving and more on helping them realize that every economic phenomenon and product price has a reason. It should guide them to develop the ability to create attractive value that makes others open their wallets. Studying economics and wise investing ultimately equate to building defensive capabilities in life: the ability to protect your money and make rational decisions for yourself. Economic, financial, and investment muscles, like physical muscles and mental muscles, can be built into solid, personal assets when developed step-by-step through proper methods and habitual practice.
