The Moneysmart Family System


My wife and I are always looking for ways to save money. Raising a family today is expensive, and authors Steve and Annette Economides have managed to raise five children while spending 77% less than the USDA predicted amount. In The MoneySmart Family System you will learn:

*Get the kids out the door for school with less stress
*End the battle over clothing-forever
*Teach your children to be grateful and generous
*Inspire your kids to help with chores as a member of a winning team
*Prepare your kids for their first paying job
*Help your kids pay for their own auto insurance, and even pay cash for their own cars
*Employ strategies for debt-free college educations
*Truly help your adult children when they want to move back home
*Be prepared to deal with your adult children when they ask for bailouts

This book is fantastic, full of great ideas for all different ages and stages of your children and your lives. My favorite part of the book, which I am working on implementing in our home, is the Economides time card and point system, a great alternative to an allowance.

*Disclaimer: I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
