Kids have their own ideas about money---some are sensible and others are not so wise.
Twelve-year-old Amanda thinks it’s to save and not blow your money right away “ so you can other things”.
When it comes to credit cards, eight-year-old Jeremie says when the monthly comes in “ you sign it and then you give it back” ---leaving out the part about actually it.
These kids are far away from the working world, but the ideas they’re forming about could affect how much they save, how they use credit cards and how much debt they finally take on in later life.
High school business teacher Jeff Balch said his students had knowledge about money other than spending. “ They don’t know most things because talks to them about them---as in their parents,” said Balch, “The discussions tend to be in terms of kids too much money, but no one tells them why, where their money goes.
Mitch Murphy said students’ message to the task force was to “ make it ”. “ It may be difficult to have a 14-or 15-year-old student get too about retirement planning, ” Murphy said, “ But if you want to talk about a cellphone contract or a debt card,they will be engaged in.” Murphy said learning financial literacy (能力) , well getting into the work force, should stay with Canadians for life and the country as a result.
Sandra Martin said children can start learning about money when they learn to . “ Sit down with the flyers and look at how much things cost,” Martin said. Babysitting and birthday money could be and there would be a(n) as to how much could be debited(借) every month, she said.
“ The reality is that we’re not spending with cash anymore. If you’re always in of your child’s money, then they’re never going to learn what it means to save for something that’s .”
Balch said he tries to make his students realize the differences between needs, wants and priorities(優(yōu)先權(quán)). If they haven’t learned self-control and if they haven’t learned how to money, they can easily spiral(螺旋上升) out of control.

Thanks to a combination of young businessmen, large numbers of university students and revitalization (新生) efforts by the local and national governments, today’s Nanjing has an of youthful exuberance (繁茂) that would have been only a few decades ago. , the city, a booming city of 6.5 million on the banks of the Yangtze River some 185 miles west of Shanghai, bears resemblance to the former capital of China that suffered the worst cruelty and violence of World War II.
Nanjing has shown a remarkable capacity for reinvention during its 2,500-year history. And in recent years, the city has moved its tragic past to become a vital engine of China’s economic growth, thanks to its position in the middle of China’s prosperous eastern seaboard. Growth has also thanks to improved ground transportation: A new bullet train linking Nanjing and Shanghai started service last year, travel time between the cities from several hours to just 75 minutes, and a Beijing-Shanghai high-speed line is to open later this year, with a stop in Nanjing. Within the city, two metro lines were built in the last few years; 15 more are planned to begin service by 2030.
Signs of Nanjing’s wealth and optimism can be seen everywhere. In the heart of the downtown Xinjiekou district, a bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen, the father of modern China, looks over a busy area.
There is perhaps no more symbol of the city’s transformation than the Zifeng Tower, a 1,480-foot skyscraper that opened its doors last May. offices, restaurants and an InterContinental hotel, the tower is the second-tallest building in China and billed as the seventh-tallest in the world.
Underlying all this development is a large Chinese and student population — there are several major universities, plus a branch of Johns Hopkins’s international studies school. In fact, art and music in all sorts of places.
On a larger , local government officials and private investors are pushing the city as a rising center for contemporary art and architecture, hoping to attract from the neon-bathed streets of its neighbor Shanghai.
