One Finance lesson I wanna teach my kids is not to be afraid of debt, and how to use it to build wealth. Leverage is how the rich get richer...

Another finance lesson is always have a relationship with your local bank and credit union. Not only will they provide you with financing when you need it, they'll also provide you with leads in local business or real estate deals. Win win really.

When I say debt, I'm not talking about credit card debt or pay day loans or debt to finance consumption generally. Those aren't usually good debts
