O knjizi:

Financial socialization of children is imperative in the context of consumer protection policies, but also in improving the financial well-being of individuals. Today more than ever, our personal and family safety depends on personal saving. Even though children are told they should save, many of them together with their parents relate saving only to bank savings or just never develop a solid savings habit. The times we live in offer different types of saving and, more importantly, more reasons to save. One of the most important reasons for saving is certainly a safer future, and from today’s perspective of a financially developed market, which offers us a large selection of products, savings is not just money deposited in a bank, it also includes payments in the second and third pension pillars or investment funds, that is, it refers to giving up instant gratification for something in the future.

This book is recommend to all who work in the field of financial education, but also to students and educators who are searching for a more detailed insight into children’s behavior and attitudes towards money.
