I wholeheartedly agree with Drew Yeager in his article, “The Value of Money”. As kids, we don’t understand a lot of things, the value of money being one. Like Yeager, I would always ask my parents for toys or snacks when I was younger. I didn’t quite understand how difficult it was to make enough money to support your family of five and still have money to spend freely on the side. When Yeager said that he valued money so much more because “[he] was the one working for it”, I completely understand and relate. You value your property over others, so when it’s someone else’s money, you don’t quite see the value, but when you have to work to make the money, you begin to see its value, and become more responsible of it, for the most part anyway. Thank you Drew Yeager, for sharing your relatable story. This would be a great story to read to kids who have yet to get a job, or fully understand the value that money has.
