Our school system prepare and educate our children for college and working careers however it doesn’t teach them the necessities of being on their own. Opening a savings or checking account, budgeting and balancing a checkbook, how credit cards work and interest rates are some of the necessities. I was surprised to learn that some students think one can charge on credit and not have to pay interests or service fees.
These valuable lessons will help the younger generation to start thinking about the benefits of home ownership at a younger age and therefore be more conscience about there spending. If you are thinking about home ownership please feel free to contact me and I will be happy to meet with you.
