A happy life cannot be achieved by a good university alone. University is just one of many options.

Teacher or parent indoctrination to find more expensive jobs

But if you pursue more money at the same time, the concept still stays in

There are people who do and have money to enter a world of great competition, a life-and-death world of the Red Sea

Instead of focusing on branding or efficiency


Or think that paying is the boss, I'm a social animal

Why is the boss calling you, you bark like a dog


I can't help but wonder what is labor value?

The often heard "no pain, no gain", why work?


  • The concept of earning money with labor

Scarabs only live in one pit all their lives, so they don't know there are other scarabs and don't want to know. Flowers are beautiful and people take them as gifts. But for ants, they have never had the cognition of "flowers". Even if they raise their heads, they can't see the appearance of flowers. The stems and leaves are just obstacles in their way. Even if people live on the same earth, people grow up in different environments and experience, and they have different perspectives on the world.


The best education in the world is to let children experience it for themselves

It is impossible for parents to stay by their child's side all their lives to block all kinds of difficulties, and they cannot always give their children financial support.


labor is real learning

(Internship experience work, working vacations to explore the world, or overseas internships are also becoming more common)

Having experienced a lot of work through internships or part-time jobs, I have practiced without fear of the world and can do anything with confidence. Because he was exposed to the real world very early, he quickly grasped the economic principles. Not only do you develop confidence in the economy of labor and money, but through these experiences you are solidly prepared to live independently.

It is a great advantage for students to participate in volunteer service and invest in solving community problems, because students do not have established prejudices and can often use more creative ways to do it. Even if they cannot solve 100% of the problems, as long as they solve five thousandths of the troubles, students will Recognizing that there is his contribution in the surrounding bricks and tiles, he will naturally be willing to study with the motivation of "solving the problems around him" in the future.

However, some parents may think this way: [His family background must be very bad, he has done so much work at a young age to help his parents share the worries] [To be exposed to the bad side of society too early is not inconvenient for children's education Is it good?】


When a child grows up, he must be independent, he must face his troubles and solve problems alone, and he must also experience the ugly and bad side of the world. Since this is unavoidable, he should learn to use his own strength to make money from an early age. Growth will be more confident in the face of the world.

Difficulties can only be overcome by experiencing difficulties. Correct education should not only teach the light side, but also let the children understand the dark side. Never say "I hope my child won't suffer", or tell a child "If you don't study hard, you will become like that", which is just misleading him to have a prejudice against labor and occupation.


After experiencing labor and learning its value, children are stronger and more fulfilled to prepare for their future.

Pocket money is not only [money given by parents], but also [I earn money from doing housework]. If you want to establish this concept for children, then the children will have the idea of being separated from their parents at an economic level. This experience is a source of economic independence.

After letting children experience labor in real life from an early age, teach them the meaning of money.

At the age of five, teach children to do things within their abilities, such as folding clothes and arranging shoes.

To ten years old, help with shopping or washing dishes, more laborious labor, and pay.

In this way, the concept of "making money through labor" is taught to children, so that children can understand that only through hard work can they get paid.

Don't think that teaching children to do housework is depriving them of their time. Children are also part of the family and should realize that in order to keep family life smooth, children must also do things that help. Whether it's cleaning your own room, taking out the trash, helping with resource recycling and sorting, etc., housework that you can do continuously is good, and sometimes it's great to let your child do things that can give him an extra sense of accomplishment, and pay him appropriately , the child will experience a sense of achievement and the joy of labor.


Taking helping others as a separate theme is a great spiritual asset for children, and the beneficial effects will eventually be reflected on themselves by improving the environment.

To be able to help others, you must first strengthen yourself, return to the original direction of hard work, and at the same time give a deeper meaning to hard work

[Occupation has no noble or inferior], every legitimate job has the necessity of existence, and those who seriously engage in various industries are worthy of respect.

"What should I do when I grow up?" Establish a correct understanding of career development

[Three hundred and sixty lines, the best of the best] Please support the children's opinions. If the opinions raised by the children at the beginning are immediately poured with cold water, not only will the children lose the opportunity to dream, our society Or maybe an artist or a brilliant craftsman has been lost as a result.

Encourage your child to find a practical path for his dream, tell him what job he wants to do, what department he needs to study, what kind of skills he should have, what kind of attitude he should have, and then go step by step and work hard!

Then praise the child when he succeeds, comfort him when he encounters setbacks, and be the best "spirit catcher" for the child's life journey!


【Have a dream is the most beautiful】, but also 【Build a dream with practicality】! Not asking him to go the way society or others expect, but to go out of his own way.

Everyone wants to find the job that suits them best and have a bright future. If you don't know what you want to do in the future. You can seek support, such as discussions with parents, teachers or other elders, and ask him to provide some advice as a reference for you to decide your future work orientation.


Before discussing with others, consider the following questions:

1. The name of the industry or job title I want to work in in the future

2. Why did I choose this job?

3. What kind of job is my personality suitable for?

4. If this job suits me, what preparations should I do from now on?

5. What should I do if my parents have different expectations for my future work than I think?




value of work

The concept and attitude of work will determine the performance of people at work. Sometimes making money is important, but doing whatever it takes to make money is not a good thing. Recognize the concept and attitude towards work deviation in today's society, and clarify the value.

Nine, set up roadside stalls in the arcade to make a little money

10. As long as the work encounters setbacks, immediately change to a new job



Why make money?

The ultimate goal of making money is freedom

The concept that must be taught to children in money education is to distinguish between the "purpose" and "target" of making money. Failure to distinguish correctly can lead to dangerous views of money in children. It may not have an immediate impact, but when the child grows up in the future, it will be easy to make the wrong choice. When you ask your child "Why do you think more money is good?", if the child answers: "Because you can buy whatever you want." Or, "The more money, the better, isn't it?" This means that the child has not yet properly understood the goals and differences of making money.


"Goal" is the process of achieving one by one in order to achieve the ultimate goal. Conversely, "purpose" is what you want to do after you achieve your goals one by one. If the goal is "I want to live a worthwhile life", then "helping others" for this purpose is the goal; good test scores are only the goal, and the ultimate goal is to get good grades in the test and enter the desired department of the university and become an excellent student adults.

Israel is a country known for entrepreneurship, and its background is [a culture of tolerance for failure]. In terms of money education, Jews believe that the ultimate goal of making money is "freedom", and making money itself is just a goal, and they hope to achieve the goal of "freedom" through it.

Not having money means being deprived of freedom, not being able to eat what you want, not being able to travel, not being able to learn interesting talents, and not being able to live a comfortable and worry-free life. Because the freedoms and powers that they possess cannot be exercised, it is considered that "the poor are regarded as dead"

Humans pursue various noble values, but among them the value of freedom is the most overwhelming. In modern society, people who commit serious crimes will be imprisoned. Although they will not go to bed hungry because they are in prison, they will have three meals a day, go to bed early and get up early, and exercise regularly to maintain their health. Even so, going to prison is still a "punishment". , because liberty is deprived. This shows how important freedom is to human beings.

Do prisoners in prison have freedom?

In people's eyes, prisoners in prisons are not free. Maybe some people think that even if their movements are restricted, their minds can still go through the walls and pursue freedom... However, there are many regulations in prisons, will these regulations restrict their thinking? Although prisoners have thoughts Freedom, but they are unable to implement their own ideas and plans, as if they are trapped in the cage of reality, and gradually lose their disappointment. However, instead of feeling sorry for themselves or daydreaming to escape reality, perhaps they should face it calmly and take good control of their lives so that they can regain their freedom. In fact, we are the same, because every decision we make affects our life.

This question is asked to...

...accept that life doesn't always turn out the way you want it to. Is there really a superman?

...learn to take responsibility for your own actions. I admit, I did it!

...understand that what a person does does not forever determine his freedom. I am who I am!

...learn to face the ups and downs of life.


In the book [Talmud Parent-Child Wealth Lesson], I mentioned that when I was a child, I felt the freedom of being rich. Mom would give me the fare to take the bus on rainy days, but I chose to use that money for something else. Resolve to spend your money on things that make you more fulfilling. To buy buns. I always pray for the rain, and the rain is as happy as a birthday. I like eating steamed buns very much, and I am determined that if I become rich in the future, I will buy steamed buns without any scruples. I bought the "freedom to eat buns" with the money my mother gave me. At that time, I didn't want to be very rich, because if there are no buns, it is meaningless to be rich. Although I was young at the time, I didn't want to know anything. Looking back now, I realize that at that time I seemed to understand the value of freedom that money brings.

(turn money into what you like)


Occasionally staying in a hotel or having a big meal will make people feel happy. When your child is happy through money, talk to your child about the value of money. [This restaurant is so good], [This food is so delicious], in addition to sighing like this, we should also tell the children: [The advantage of having money is that it allows us to have rich and free choices like this. ] Let children think about the value of [money and freedom].

Ask the child, [If I have money, what kind of freedom can I get?] Let the child naturally understand that [my freedom] is more precious than money, and the purpose of making money should be [freedom].
