In august of 2015 I started this series about the wonderful world of investing. By writing these blog posts I try to educate my kids. And I hope my kids at the age of say 18, have all the financial knowledge I’m having right now. This would be a huge advantage for them!
I think when you educate kids about money, they will benefit from it for the rest of their lives. Or as the saying goes: “What is learned in the cradle is carried to the tomb”. And to educate your kid is your responsibility as a parent. And I do not take this responsibility lightly!
In this series I write blog posts about all kinds of different investment and financial topics. The post you are reading now is the summary of this series. Every time a new addition to the series is posted, I will also update this post.
I hope you like reading these posts. Feel free to share this knowledge. Together we can keep the “snowball of knowledge” rolling.

- The beginning
- Getting to know money and the value of money

Dear readers on what kind of topic should I write a post about?
I like to hear from you!

Hey Pollie,
This is a really nice message and I like that you did this, and I love the topics you’ve written about. I hope your kids learn well from this 🙂
I think your kids and many investors should also know when they should sell a stock. What do you think about that?

I agree with that. This is a great topic to write about. Thanks for the idea
