WORDS: Melanie Wegener, B.Ed (Prim)As parents, we have a responsibility to teach financial literacy to our children. It is easier to start positive money habits young than correcting them later. We can say all the right things and teach them skills but if we are not modelling this in our behaviour, chances are they are not going to take much notice. Monkey see, monkey do.

Being wealthy really sucksPoor Little Rich Kid writes: My parents are self-made millionaires. They support my lifestyle by providing a car and house, and paying for the odd, large, unexpected bill. But since I was a kid I’ve been petrified at the thought of inheriting this wealth, because they worked all their lives to build it up. It’s like an iceberg that has chipped off my entire shoulder. I don’t live to excess and I work and invest my savings.

Today I want to talk to you about what I genuinely believe is the opportunity of a lifetime. No, it’s not becoming an AI expert. The cyborgs are getting exponentially smarter and will soon view us as golden retrievers (and leave us to sniff each other’s butts while they do the heavy analytical and computational work. Good boy!). Nor is it earning your living as a YouTuber, or, God forbid, an influencer.

Denise writes: I’ve been married for 35 years and I am scared. I’m only 81 days away from accessing my super balance, which is $30,000. I need to take that money and escape from my husband. I would be leaving a property worth $1.7 million. Nothing is in my name, only the debt of $170,000 that’s left of the mortgage. I know I’m losing everything I’ve worked for, but I’m scared of him, and scared that he can take what I have left. I feel I need to take the money and go overseas so he can’t find me.

My phone pinged. It was my editor texting me: “Scott, I’d like you to address the omnipresent issue of tax cuts in your column. “It’s the biggest story of the week and readers would like to know your thoughts.”I carefully pondered his request for six seconds, then shot back my reply: “Nah,” and added a yawn emoji. Then I went for a swim with my kids. When I got out of the water I checked my phone. Three missed calls from my editor. (Turns out he had a few emojis of his own for me.)Soooo ...

Late last year we got back from our latest family adventure. We spent three-and-a-half months travelling through Europe in a motorhome. Just writing that last line makes it sound very Instagram influencer #bestlife!
