In this episode, I have a conversation with best-selling author Deborah Pegues about some lighthearted topics like emotional spending and enabling. After I talk to Deborah, I provide seven things high school seniors should know about money.
Here are the questions we answer:
Question 1: I’m a high school pastor now and desire to equip graduating seniors with more financial knowledge than I had at 18. My question is, what are the 3-5 things seniors need to know?
Additional Notes:
- Money is the result of work.
- Money is finite.
- Debt is a burden.
- Instant gratification often leads to delayed financial health.
- A little bit of money + A lot of time = A lot of money.
- God is the owner and provider of everything.
- Eternal treasures are greater than earthly ones.
