Let’s face it: As parents we know we have learned lots of important lessons, and we wish our kids would pay attention when we try to impart those lessons. And let’s face it: Our kids usually hear what they want to hear and ignore what they want to ignore. (Most of us did the same thing when we were young, but let’s keep that just between us for now.)

I love contests. In fact, I love them so much that I have refereed hundreds of soccer games over the past decade. But I hate stock-picking contests, especially those designed for teenagers. That’s why I was mortified to read about a recent contest “won” by a Seattle school.

No, that's not a typo. In 1994 I made an investment that is likely to grow from $10,000 to more than $20 million and you can do something similar. I'll tell you how, however, this plan comes with a caveat: you probably won't live long enough to see the final payoff.

If you’re old enough to read this, it’s probably too late for you to take full advantage of one of the oldest and most foolproof investment plans around: the proven notion that you can retire comfortably if you just save $1 a day. The catch? There are two, actually. First, you must start saving when you’re born. Second, you’ve got to leave your savings to compound, without spending the earnings or paying taxes on them.

Most of us who are parents (and grandparents) tend to lavish attention on our children (and grandchildren), hoping we can provide the right encouragement, the right environment, and the right examples so these young people will turn into successful, fulfilled adults. We give them our time, our love, and (hoping that a little of it rubs off) the benefit of what we’ve learned in life.
