Teaching Children Good Money Habits…
No one doubts the importance of teaching children good money habits. Yet there is no consistent national financial education curriculum. Parents are often the first and best role models for teaching children positive financial habits that could benefit them for the rest of their lives. Encouraging children to understand money and make smart financial decisions is an important part of parenting and it starts early.

Recently, we witnessed a positive example of this. AXA Equitable joined a troop of Girl Scout First Graders and their Moms as they toured a local bank to learn about money and saving while earning their “Use Resources Wisely” badge.

…Lasts a Lifetime
Financial education begins in our local communities, with experiences like this Girl Scout bank tour, and continues in the most important organization of all ─ HOME. On the occasion of Mother’s Day, we asked some of our financially savvy AXA Equitable colleagues what their mothers taught them about using good money sense and how they are teaching their own children.

Thanks to all the Moms out there who teach children to use financial resources wisely.
