This Summer, Ron Lieber, “Your Money” columnist from The New York Times, called and asked if I had some advice on how to answer some tough kids’ questions, including “Are we rich?”.  Kids can really stop us in our tracks with questions like this and make us take another look at our financial situation from a different perspective. 

Ron included some of the advice I shared with him along with advice from several other experts in the field of kids and money that I think most parents can use at some point with their kids.  Here’s a link to the column:

Have you ever faced a tough money question from your own children?  If so, I’d love to hear from you!  Just send me a quick email with the question(s) to : Susan@msgen.com with the Subject: Tough Kids’ Questions.  I look forward to helping!
