Family Balance Sheet

DECEMBER 11, 2015

The holidays are a fun time to get together with friends and family. It’s not too late to pull a holiday party together for Christmas or New Year’s and you don’t have to blow your budget. Swaps are a great theme for your moms’ group, the neighborhood, and family. It’s PARTY time.

One of the absolute best things about the holiday season is that it’s the time of year when you can sit back and spend some much needed quality time with the ones you love the most.

Maybe you could even sell tickets to the neighbor kid’s Moms (face it, they are also looking for ways to entertain t heir kids).

My view is that an allowance can be a chance to teach budgeting, opportunity costs and delayed gratification – if done right. I trimmed grass around the house, I was on call to help Dad fix cars, paint the house or help Mom pick and can the plums and etc. They can then experience the consequences of no or poor budgeting.
