And so we're starting to talk a little bit more beyond what I'm about to tell you.
But I think just starting with the basics of them practicing the three big buckets of money, which is giving, saving, and spending.
And when you think about it as adults, that's basically all we can do with money, right?
You can be more sophisticated within those buckets, but like that's it.
And so being able to do all three, if you're an adult and you can do all three well, you're a pretty well-rounded person with money.
I would say you have a pretty healthy grasp on it.
It's when people get to the extremes that it becomes difficult, right?
They spend everything they make.
And they're broke or they save everything and they become hoarders and they're not fun, enjoyable people to be around because they're just obsessed with, you know, keeping money like it.
They're not generous people in that way.
So I think the...
Teaching them and letting them experience all three is going to be big.
And so, I mean, we take kind of the old school approach, which is what we tell adults to do, is give some of your money.
Like, hey, whatever you make, 10% of it needs to go somewhere.
And that can be at a local church if you're there.
It could be at something that they're passionate about, some type of nonprofit.
Whatever it looks like.
But I think, you know, cultivating the spirit of one of the first things we do is we're givers, like we give.
And there's something in that habit that I think is so beautiful.
