For whatever reason it seems girls are just way less interested.

It’s one of my biggest pet peeves and one of the main things I want to teach

Changing the expectation that they’ll be a stay at home mom?

That's my situation too. I know her salary and my salary.

I've tried to involve my wife in the finances. She is totally not interested.

Just keep showing her, that’s kinda a CYA thing for a future misunderstanding

Pretorian

Same boat. Has zero idea what we pay for insurance, etc. Frustrating

She’ll care if the money goes away

Create a net worth spreadsheet. You will want to do one for yourself anyway

I've been doing that for years. Tried to show it to her, not interested.

Y-Zag

Hard to understand.

yahtzee

4/18/21 7:22pm

I've wondered if it is she just doesn't understand money or numbers.

If I remember right there is a pretty good persona finance 101 course from BYU

We have 3. Are we doomed?

Why 3? There are so many things to keep track of...

One main account for family funds and 2 other accounts for individual fun

We have had each of our girls take the church's personal finance class while in HS. It's not perfect, but it is good

Get them a job, teach them to work, have them see taxes and make them pay for stuff and they figure out a lot of that.

Turnpike Lane

4/18/21 4:27pm

Exactly. It's so important to have them work so they can learn the value of a dollar.

dilbert

4/18/21 4:42pm

Get them a job?? How about make them get their own job?

pink22

4/18/21 4:45pm

At 15 or 16, they’ll need some assistance. But yeah they gotta do that work.
