In old age, you can count on your children or they will count on you. Here, how it goes.

This is an important point to consider, where we don't always have to think about our future to be responsible for our descendants. We don't always have to save for our future, but investing in education and providing a good school for our children is one of the best investments for our assurance in old age. When our children can earn more money than us, the legacy of mental and material wealth will continue to our grandchildren in the future. Who wouldn't be proud of this achievement?

It all depends on our perception in dealing with the existence of money. Hoarding it can be exhausting, but using money with the right purpose has the potential to bring greater benefits than our expectations.

Investing in educating our children so that they become people with high insight and have a bright future is certainly an important thing and must be done by every parent. because the best legacy for a child is not just about money. but the knowledge that he can use to achieve success and happiness in life includes knowledge in good financial management. because if we only leave money without giving proper education to our children then he might not use the money to develop his career and instead it will be spent by them. due to poor financial management and lack of knowledge in life sciences.

and of course we still have to think about and prepare ourselves for old age. and I even think about not wanting to bother my kids someday. because they also have their own family. so that I will prepare a retirement fund and also prepare my children to become independent individuals and be more successful than me.

My heart is always heavy when I see that education has actually lost its value. It's painful, but then I can remember that once you are educated, success is already at your doorstep. For a few years now, the number of graduates has increased and the rate of unemployment has also increased. However, despite education losing its value, it is still very important, as it is every parent's dream to make sure their child is educated to at least get a good job to be supported to the family and also to be able to fend for him/her self. In addition to education, I believe having a skill or running a small business is not a bad idea. We should also support young people in their endeavors. despite a child being educated, we should encourage them to have skills.
