“Draw up a list of work-pay chores. Show the potential earnings for each job. Allow your children to choose their jobs—but make it clear that they have to work their way up from the smaller to the greater chores; they can’t just cut right to the higher-paying ones. And the job must be done well, not just done. Teach them that they must start with the lesser tasks and work their way up the ladder. I promise you, your kids will learn to work more quickly and efficiently to get to the higher-paying jobs—and they will look forward to working in order to earn more.”
― Suze Orman, The Money Class: Learn to Create Your New American Dream

“The only thing that you absolutely have to know, is the location of the library.”
