Bitcoin Forum

It has been a practice for decades that parents were sending and training their children or wards to secure a befitting jobs either in the government or the private sectors. I was told that in those days, government agencies and private sectors agencies were coming to pick the best graduating students from their various field of studies in their universities. And given them cars, a houses and other allowances to start of their lives and work with them.
And that boosted the attendance of people to school because every parents wants their children to secure a good job after school.
And they didn't secure a job, they can join politics to participate in political movement and others but not everyone has the opportunity to join politics to the top. Most of them end at the subject or gladiators and from there most of them became political apathy.
And things are not like those days again, we have millions of graduates with 1st class degrees but no jobs because the government didn't prepare for the future of it citizens so when the population explosion came, there is no job spot again to the population again. And if they employ it is just few spots. And all the rest move around looking for jobs. Then another thing that making jobs to be lacked is corruption, and lastly capitalism.
Therefore the best option I suggest is to prepare your children in cryptocurrency investment so that they will not depend on government or private sectors jobs but will create jobs for the society through cryptocurrency investment. Like many have done it from their bitcoin investment. They have opened Boutique, Barbing Salon, Restaurant fast food shops, Food Items Shop, Land and Fish Farms etc. And for that instead of seeking for jobs, they provide jobs for others and they become employers of labour.
Therefore prepare them for bitcoin investment and not to be job seekers. I have said this before.

DiMarxist.

I agree with the idea of preparation but when it comes force it's not nice at all. The goal is to teach your kids how money works plus investments and why they are better than regular average jobs. The truth is if you really want to help kids in such aspect, all you have to do is expose them to different opportunities including programming and business. Then you can allow them choose what they enjoy doing then you as a parent can help them perfect it.

Kids excel most when they are not forced but rather enjoy what they do.

To invest in bitcoin, you will need money to buy bitcoin, and for you to get money, you must have a mean of income. What i understand is that parents should not allow their children to depend more on only going to school, but they should also take them to places where they can learn a skill to assist them in case there is no employment after school. Also the youths should try to be creative and use to the internet, so that they don't depend on government for jobs, and get jobs online, since the offline jobs are limited to some certain people. When you have an income then you can invest in bitcoin with rest of mind without panic. What I think that parent should do is to teach the potential of bitcoin, and the advantage of investing in bitcoin to their teens, and if possible buy them some fraction of bitcoin for them to hodli in their noncustodial wallet and watch how the price of bitcoin rise and fall, so that they can have the experience of the volatile nature of bitcoin that it is worth investing in.

Yeah, things are different now. But perhaps, before diving into crypto, financial literacy first. Children need to understand general financial concepts like saving, budgeting, and responsible investing. When their knowledge about crypto is sufficient due to education, it's still up to them whether they choose crypto. Make sure they understand the risks and how the market works.

It's okay for them to be employees at first while starting, but eventually, they should explore business ideas. The ultimate goal should be to empower the children.

The the global world is going digitalize in various ways and is more like civilization that is gradually taken over,

In as much is a great thing exposing out children to the digital investment world or space it is also good they figure out how things are revolving around the world including government job as you Said, sooner even without parental consent children of now our days are becoming more versatile in knowledge, however preparing them up at a tender will be at a more advantage.

So your idea is basically to tell our children they need to buy some Bitcoin, sell them later on, and then use that money to open a business? That sounds cool and all but you forget running a business requires a skill on its own. Even if your business opens new opportunities for others, sustaining your business is a problem that you need to solve. Not to mention getting the capital to start is probably not as easy as selling your coins on an exchange.

If you really want your children to do something like that, you'll need to prepare their mentality and education too. There are no successful businessmen without failure, and not everybody has the means to keep failing 10 times in a row or more until one of their products makes it. Buying Bitcoin is not going to solve it, as much as you can earn 2x or more from a successful trade.

I beg to disagree with you on this, Bitcoin investment isn't done on empty pocket, It requires funds and I believe its Laziness be prepared in life to just dump money somewhere and do nothing else apart from monitor your investments. The best preparation parents need for their children is skill-based preparation. You watch your kids from little and see what drives their interests and encourage them to pick up a career in that direction. Funds can be lost, investment can dissolve, but your learned skills are your master keys to survival anywhere, any day and anytime. You can always intimate them practically on the importance of investing their earned income into profitable ventures like Bitcoin, Real Estate, Agriculture e.t.c. If you invest and have no backup source of income, you tend to dissolve your investments before maturity for survival.

Why depend on Government they can be prepapred for a larger greenish pasture out there or for a private company later on. Well incorporating knowledge abiut investment to be follow later in when they grasp at a proper age. But now the focus should be on education and future endeavor you dont wanna pressure your kids about it for an early stage. They wanna play like a normal id too.

Actually investment isn't always Bitcoin, each person has it's own preference with both risk and reward.

You also can't force your children will like Bitcoin and want to become an entrepreneur, this is why there are many young people nowadays have a mental health disease, the parent wants to build the children like what they want.

If he think become an entrepreneur isn't for him, it's fine for your children to work as an employees even though he has a good amount of money.

There are so many jobs, you think there's no job because you're expecting to work in a job that related with your degrees.

If you do not have money from a job, how will you have money to invest in Bitcoin? If we say that you are talking about what will happen after 20 years, when the price of Bitcoin will be more than 500k, and the possibility of the price doubling every 4 years will be impossible.
Bitcoin is a good investment, but the higher its price, the lower the return on investment. Investing $1,000 in 2014 and keeping it until 2024 will achieve a much higher income than someone who invests $1,000 in 2024 and sells it in 2034.

what's wrong with government or private sector jobs? not everyone has the talent to become an entrepreneur who opens up jobs for people, there are some who are more suited to working and making money for themselves. so i think, i will not force my son to become an entrepreneur or work for someone, i will let him choose what is best for him himself, whether he wants to be a doctor, soldier, office worker, that's up to him. because it is his right to choose his work and i don't want to limit it.

but i agree that it is quite important for me as a parent to teach my child about cryptocurrency and how it works, so that maybe he can get to know the world of crypto faster than other children.

In summary, what message are you trying to pass here? If I should guess right, stop enrolling your child in school because there's no job waiting for them outside there and start teaching them bitcoin investment right? Having crypto knowledge is one thing and having a stable job is another. Besides, you can't dive into crypto investment without having source where money is coming either through government job or private business. Being involved in any of these will not stop you from investing in crypto.

My advice would rather be, enroll your children in good schools and encourage them to have good grades while you expose them many opportunities on how they can be independent without having to depend on securing government job before surviving. It's not necessarily has to do with crypto investment because I see it as an enforcement if they probably have no interest in it. With the exposure, they can make perfect decisions for themselves regarding their area of interest.

Once your children are up to certain age then its something nice to make a decision in teaching them about bitcoin little and they begin to get used to it gradually till they becomes a teenage and by then, they would have been very active and interested in learning more and investing in this same bitcoin immediately they begin to earn on a weekly or monthly basis, this is very more interesting than exposing them to depend on government or investing for them in fiat, with bitcoin, they can learn how to be profitable in finances and also be independent financially because of the opportunities that comes in with bitcoin adoption.

Nah nah nah, its not a must, as if people can't do well without Bitcoin? Do you know how many businesses are out there that are nailing the financial world right now? Let them be exposed to Bitcoin and future innovations, this is the best advice I can give anyone, but don't force them to learn what they don't have any interest for.

Bitcoin isn't everything, if bitcoin doesn't exists today life will still goes on, jobs are good and many families still grows with government jobs and don't also forget that a successful bitcoinist needs a job to be able to invest money on Bitcoin.

It's better to be opened to new ideas and don't leave one behind for another, get jobs, save some money and think more about investing on new techs and innovations, including Bitcoin and whatever comes in the future, and don't forget to live, be happy and be healthy.

There is nothing bad in encouraging your children to go to school and graduate with good grades. As a parent I want my children to be the best both in character and learning. The most important thing is to ensure that the children choose professions that they have passion for and the ability to excel in them. It is not also wrong to secure government or private sector jobs because it is important for their survival.

However, it is important to teach your children financial education and entrepreneurship. This financial education will teach them how to avoid waste, save, and invest accordingly. Entrepreneurship education will help them to identify opportunities to maximize their skills and also take advantage of business opportunities if jobs are not available or they have interest in business.

Teaching them about Bitcoin is not bad but they need money to invest in Bitcoin. So they need to work, earn, save, and invest. Bitcoin is not the only viable Investment, they might have an interest in investing in another sector. However, I have started introducing my nephews to Bitcoin because it is one of the best.

Note that you don't need to be a full-time crypto investor to make money from it. Many investors see the sector as an alternative source of income while they focus on their full-time jobs

I agree more if children have two categories in their lives.
1. Crypto Investment and
2. Employment.
For me, work does not affect investment and vice versa, in fact the two support each other, investment has two methods, long term and short term, investment does not make money in a matter of hours or days, need development in the crypto that is invested, the work has a direct impact on the person and also the wider community, the investment only has an impact on themselves, so these two factors support each other.

I don't agree if children are only invested in investment knowledge, without knowledge of work, you don't live in this world alone, we have relatives, friends and generally the wider community, Thus, we need work to make things easier for people in all matters, because we work in that place, for example government, private sector, etc.

There are more truths on your comment, however I am very much aware of what you have said, the important thing I picked from your comments is the last paragraph, people are meant to choose for themselves (whether little or big). We shouldn't force them to learn what they don't want. Some families fails this text because they don't know what to do in a situation like this. However Bitcoin is an investment that will change many life's, but when people don't choose you shouldn't force them to choose Bitcoin, time will come when many people will start to dream of having Bitcoin, moreover the bullrun is here to come.
Give the children different options to choose, Bitcoin, White coller jobs, government jobs and many, skills and what ever, just give them the opportunity to choose, also tell them the difference between those things (negative or positive) tell them and give them the chance to choose for themselves. They are kids and you are their parents, always work hard so that you can be able to sponsor them in what ever choices they make.

First of all we need to know what our children want to do or what they like to do. OP I agree with you but we should make our child educated and then exposed to crypto or bitcoin. I also think that we should stop our children from doing what they don't want to do or what is against their mind.

Most of the people in the country where I currently live do not know anything about Bitcoin or cryptocurrency. So most of the parents in our country force their children to study in a school and even send them to various training centers for an official government job. If those parents in our country knew about Bitcoin and understood about Bitcoin then maybe they would have prepared their children for Bitcoin. Parents in our country don't even know that many people around the world have changed their lives overnight using Bitcoin.

But my plan is completely different when I have a child I will educate him about Bitcoin along with education and even make him well educated in Bitcoin education from a young age. So that he can change his life through Bitcoin in the future.

Why don't we understand the basic that we need money in order to invest into Bitcoin or any other domain as without money you cannot make money, if we teach our kids only to focus on Bitcoin then where do they get money to invest into Bitcoin?

Let's cut the crap and keep it simple they can do regular job or even business but alongside that let them invest into Bitcoin as it will secure their future. Lest not forget why Bitcoin was created and it's not for investment but rather direct P2P. We need to ensure they earns and invest money in Bitcoin rather just awaiting that miraculously they will earn Bitcoin.

Obviously, I definitely will let my kids know the information I have got about Bitcoin and the hope that Bitcoin actually comes with because Bitcoin is hope even for growing kids to leverage the opportunity when they must have grown of age. However, I will leave them to decide if it's something that they will love the idea or not, but to keep the information away from my kids no, Because people tend to learn and understand things better when they're in their teenage age, Because they have lesser things to think of.

Dear, you have really raised a good point here i am agree with you. This is so true if you do like a work that your elders or parents have says you to do you will feel it a burden and this thing lead us to stress and we do not feel comfortable in such domain and never enjoy our life. We should play our part just by addressing them to the right path/opportunities then it should be totally up to them which domain they would like to work in.

In this way, they will enjoy their life along with their earning and you will see them grooming fastly. let's say we have forcefully appointed our children with such a domain they do not like and this thing makes them rigid and they will start to disobey us. We need to understand our children and advise/address them in a polite way so they will pick up our sayings easily.

You need money to make money, and you can't really teach your children to become a millionaire with a $500 starting capital, because if that was possible, you could just make yourself a billionaire. And crypto investment isn't really a good money making method for everyone, there's so many scams and the volatility of the market makes a lot of investors broke.

Or are you suggesting that children should live off crypto investment of their parents? Even that isn't so easy, because you need to have a lot of crypto, and all of that crypto should be Bitcoin, as other coins will die eventually; and it doesn't come without a risk - what if Bitcoin crashes in the future? What are they going to do without education, career and any money-making skills in general?

And who will work in these "Boutique, Barbing Salon, Restaurant fast food shops, Food Items Shop, Land and Fish Farms etc"? "Millions of graduates with 1st class degrees"? If everyone becomes BTC-investors and millionaires after your advice, then there will be no one left to work. :)

By opening all of the above businesses, don’t BTC-investors become the very capitalists you criticize above?

Don't need to look for a job, need to create it. Bitcoin can help with this by allowing to accumulate start-up capital, but investing in this will take time to increase the money invested. And what to do in the interval between investing (note, which also requires money) and making a profit sufficient to open "Boutique, Barbing Salon, Restaurant fast food shops, Food Items Shop, Land and Fish Farms etc"? How will your children live on during this period? For what means of subsistence?

In addition to government jobs, there are jobs ("Boutique, Barbing Salon, Restaurant fast food shops, Food Items Shop, Land and Fish Farms etc") that are created by people like you, with the only difference being that they opened their businesses without investing in bitcoin, but, for example, with borrowed money. So how is this different from your version?

The idea for children to invest in cryptocurrency is good since it is something that will be of good benefits to them in the future but right now it is not every family that has the amount of money to invest in cryptocurrency as the world is going through a lot as a result of inflation going with the price of Bitcoin it is not every parent who can afford the amount to invest in Bitcoin before thinking of encouraging their children to invest because directly or indirectly it is the parents of the child that will raise the money for the investment since the child doesn't have money of his or her own at the moment. I 5hink it is very important for us to consider the financial aspect before advising parents to encourage their children to invest because Bitcoin investments is not a total guarantee that someone will become a millionaire today or tomorrow because it's not a Ponzi scheme.

You're getting things mixed up. First, Bitcoin is not a messiah that will wipe out poverty and secondly, bitcoin investment is not a job. It does not involve waking up very early in the morning and running to catch a bus to work. All it entails is to get a good wallet, buy your bitcoin, store it and go to bed while it appreciates in value. What I'm trying to say is that you can be working whether in the public or private sector and still be a bitcoin investor, you don't have to quit one for the other.

Government jobs or jobs, in general, may not have sufficient salaries to create a prosperous future. Still, in the end, they will provide a stable source of income, even if it is not lucrative, and one should not rely solely on Bitcoin investment without providing an additional source of income, as the profits they will make in Bitcoin may not come overnight; it may take months or years. However, teaching them about the cryptocurrency field and preparing them for Bitcoin investment from a young age is a good idea to solidify ideas and knowledge in their minds as they grow up, making it easier for them in the future. Once they have gained sufficient experience and knowledge and strongly believe in Bitcoin's ability to make them businessmen, they can embark on their investment journey, which I know they will not regret one day embarking on. When they succeed in this journey, they will undoubtedly be able to manage a new business that suits their aspirations and experience and can eventually quit their jobs. Bitcoin BTC is the best investment known in history.

I get your points OP, but it's something not too necessary taking as priority. Bitcoin investment or trading is not a well recognized job whereas some countries are beginning to place restrictions. It is very much important to get a formal education, come out with good grades and wait for any slight opportunity to getting a job either government or private. On a normal basics, why not do a combination of both, it is much better and would not in any way interfere.

I think a much better way to say it  is that, we prepare our children to be totally independent of government jobs, or any job where they will have to earn a salary, so rather, they should be their own bosses by establishing and managing their one businesses and so on.
For this is because, for a person who is not working and earning a salary to be able to invest in bitcoin and in cryptocurrencies in general, he or she has to have a dependable and reliable source of income, a graduate without a good source of income can't successfully invest in cryptocurrenciea because making making money here requires a lot of time and patience.

So, when someone comes out from school, their first priority should be to build a business through which they can be earning good money, and they can invest part of that money in cryptocurrencies so they can get even high return to the future, to enable them expand their business and even build new ones.

I think the right word to use in this contest instead of prepared, it should be motivate because when you say prepare your children for Bitcoin, it sounds and looks as if you are trying to force Bitcoin on your kids, and that is not a good approach if you want them to truly develop the motivation to push through with bitcoin and a journey.
But if you use the world, motivate, it sounds more friendly and less forcing in my own view and that will help build the confidence of the kids since they will be in charge of deciding whether to pick interest in Bitcoin or not, and by so doing, your own as a parent is to support your kids to achieve that success.

I think OP is speaking from his experience in his home country, which I can relate to. In these kind of economies, it’s advisable to engage in technical skills or skilled trade or craft. However, this cannot work for everyone, there are those who love the academic route and have zero interest in learning anything else. Getting an university degree isn’t bad, getting good jobs is a lot easier when you have a first class degree. This discussion takes my mind to a topic in bitcoin discussion: 5.0 CGPA or 5 BTC. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5485934.0)

This is good advice if the person has the funds to open a business.  What if the person doesn't have it?  It isn't bad to attend schools to have the basic knowledge of everything.  It does not harm to get employed, paid, save, and at the end open their own business that accept cryptocurrency specifically Bitcoin. 

Life isn't like magic where with just a single word everything happens.  Everything in life is a process, if one does not have a fund to open up a business, one need to get employed to be able to support their needs and look for extra jobs to save money to hasten their capability to setup their own business.  It is not bad to get employed for the goal of opening an owned business.


One need to take a job to earn money especially when a person does not come from a wealthy family.  From that, he can either save money or invest from the extra of his salary.  Let learning from formal education be a stepping stone to establishing one's financial independence.  It is much better than ignoring the importance of education.  Even if the person's priority is to be his business owner, if he does not have the money to setup his own business, he has no other way but to be an employee first and, later a boss of his own.



Depends on that graduate's financial capability.  If he has the money then he can setup his own business but it isn't advisable to jump ahead to create one business without knowing the all around of the business a person wanted to set up. Getting employed has its benefits, and that is the experience and learnings one can accumulate being an employee of the same venture he planned to.

Op you have spoken well except the topic were you made it seem as though parents should disregard government jobs and focus their children on just cryptocurrency. There you are wrong because, before you begin your Bitcoin accumulation journey, you must first have a source of income other than cryptocurrency as it may fail you. So one cannot start investing and keep it running without a job, if you try it, you might end up withdrawing all your Bitcoin when emergencies arise. When you have a good source of income and your into Bitcoin accumulation it will make everything easy, that is if you have also set aside emergency funds that can sustain you for at least 3 to 6 months.

As a parent, if you create a wallet for your child when they are still young and start accumulating some Satoshi, when the child grows up, you could just introduce him fully to cryptocurrency and hand over the seed phrase to him for him to keep accumulating, when he gets a job, that is a great step as a father/ mother because we can tell what the future holds, it's possible before your child grows up 1 Bitcoin will equal $500k so now is the best time to even start accumulating to pass to your next generation.

Nope, I will still prepare my children to have a discipline and learn a good skill, be the best at what they do, then money will follow. Crypto and Bitcoin is just a form of payment and investment you will still need to earn money before getting any of them. And crypto is still a secondary knowledge and needs, and the information is everywhere now, they wouldn't miss it. But without discipline attitude and skill, even if they have all knowledge about crypto and bitcoin but if they lack of skills and discipline they would still suffer. I wouldn't care wether they worked for government, private company or even having their own business as entrepreneur as long as they good at what they do, they should be fine.

I'm not against what you said because, after all, I don't want to be an employee either. I will just say my own opinion regarding this one.

This is the reason why I prefer being a freelancer rather than somebody working in either the government or the private sector. The number of graduates is increasing every single year while on the other hand, the number of job slots isn't increasing or worse, decreasing every year. I've seen graduates who are working on a job that isn't in line with their degree. I've seen people who are constantly finding jobs even though they graduated already. I've seen people living from one place to another place because that is the only place where there's a job slot. Worse, I've seen people who graduated, but have a hard time having a job, and until now are jobless. Relying on government to secure a job is almost impossible unless you have somebody who will help you.

Now about investing, I just don't know why you single-pointed out Bitcoin investment alone. Are other asset classes not worthy of investing anymore? Why not just say "Prepare your children for investing." Yes, we are in a Bitcointalk forum, say to us to prepare our children for investing in Bitcoin because it sounds like Bitcoin is the only investment out there. I understand what you're saying, but rephrase it, and use investing in general.

That's the most stupidest thing I have read as a Title in years on this forum. How can you compare investing in an asset with working for someone? Investment and Job aren't to be compared. They are two different things. You need money to buy Bitcoin or atleast mine Bitcoin if you don't want to buy them from the market. Educating a child about Bitcoin is a great way to have them informed about something you are heavily involved or invested in, but how are they going to buy Bitcoin without money?

I think, this is a good advice that will help parents to have wealthy children that will not depend on government before they can do what so ever they want to do to get rich in the country. Training your children to acquire the knowledge of cryptocurrency at their age now, it will make the children not to depend too much in you either school fees or house rent which are the major thing students use to ask their parents for assistance so that their landlord or school management will not send them away in the premises. I have this idea in mind some years ago, that once my children are approaching 16 or 17 years old, I will begin to teach them all the things they need to know about cryptocurrency investment and how they can use it to grow their wealth in the future.

Why do I hear it sounds like a very forced choice? Cultivating a life or death crypto culture is not the best solution at the moment (even if we manage to make huge profits from cryptocurrencies). What I love most about the world of finance is how money works. There are still lots of opportunities that our children can take advantage of in the future, whether they want to be a football player, an oil businessman, whatever they don't have to be as a trader or crypto investor, it doesn't matter to parents, the important thing is that they are successful financially in the future.

We must look at other opportunities as well as diversify our efforts to achieve our goals. The cryptocurrency field can indeed be one opportunity, but it is not the only one.

Don't do this, really bad parenting in my opinion even if the intent is pure, I think that grooming your kid to like what you like isn't really the best way to raise a kid, it just makes you look like you're trying to build yourself a clone so your dreams back then, they can achieve for you. The best that you can do is to teach them the worth of every cents and that they should be aware of how to do an investment, do some introductions there on different investments and there you can talk about how you've invested in bitcoin but don't force them into it, preparation sounds like you're forcing them to like what you like. Let's also face the reality that they're going to need a job so they can secure themselves financially so even if we try to avoid it, they're going to need it so why not just teach them anyway? I don't think that when you teach them bitcoin investment, that they don't have to learn how to get a job. It's weird why we're so obsessed at dichotomy when there's also the choice of doing both, I don't think that there's a grand arbiter that's going to be punishing you for choosing both choices since they're both doable.

You should not force your children to do what they want to do when they grow up, whether they want to do a job or be a businessperson. I have seen cases where family members want their children to be police officers, but their children do not like it. They want to play cricket and be sportsmen. But you should guide your kids on which one will be good for them and tell them the negative and the positive side as well.

When it comes to investment, you could suggest to them about Bitcoin and tell them the positive side of Bitcoin investment. But, you should not force them to invest in Bitcoin because it should be up to themself weather they want to invest or not.

Yes, first of all let the children be children :D and when they grow up, let them choose their own path.

Apart from that, I'm curious which country the OP is talking about, because in most countries in Europe, for example, of I'm not wrong (this is the case in Spain at least), population is not rising but, on the contrary, A generational change is expected in the coming years in Government jobs. On the other hand, what he said about cars, houses... doesn't fit with the principle of austerity of these jobs in many (most?) democratic regimes.

Finally, he advocates choosing crypto over a public career. But why not both? are they incompatible?

I agree with the OP that children can be introduced to Bitcoin and slowly taught to be frugal. Being a parent myself, I explain to children the smallest basics from which they can begin to understand the meaning of future investments. Lessons like: don't spend your pocket money on what you want right now; leave some money; and be patient if you want to get something. Examples for children should be very primitive; they should not be frightened by the future; on the contrary, interest in acquiring knowledge can create the right thinking.
Only patience and love will create the correct understanding in children of what needs to be learned. But if a child reaches the age of graduation and knows nothing, where can he get money to save? After all, many admit that finishing school is one thing, but being ready for adult life and being in demand is another.

Well said mam, there is no point knowing about bitcoin and not having a paying job for you to be able to invest in Bitcoin, there are few guys I knew that are jobless, they are finding it very hard to invest in anything, I believe that having a job either under the government or not is still important, there will be no form of investment if you aren't making any money.

---

As if government jons is that bad, many families are been fed with government jobs, when people are able to acquire properties like lands using government jobs, they are of level based, and some government jobs are very good that the payment are very high, Bitcoin is more like the new digital gold but don't forget that there was gold before Bitcoin and some government workers have invested their money also in gold too.

---

One works better with the other, people including our children must be open to newer ideas, they must not sit down on one thing, the world is evolving very fast, new things will be made, new ideas will be coming in future, embrace them, learn new things, lack of learning new things is what make many old business fade away, they can't just keep up.

OP I get your point, but there are various ways to teach your children how to be self reliant. first you the parents must either be seen to be self reliant or have some connotation with self reliance. However training your children or giving them sound education is good, because education can as well help them thinker something better for themselves, either to start up there own business or investing in Bitcoin which would be an easy part for them if their parents are Bitcoin investors. However even as a bitcoin investor, there are still other profitable businesses your children can spread their tentacles if they want to be self-reliant, their profit from bitcoin investment can as well be diversified into real estate, transportation etc, just to build more capital.

Just bring your children up with lucrative creativities so that they don't get stranded when an expectation doesn't workout as thought.

Preparing your children is one thing but pinning it down to Bitcoin investment scale is kinda overated if you ask me. First of all, life is full of phases and I believe there are some vital things and skills that the child ought to know to enable him or her secure a good investment in Bitcoin, saying that the child doesn't need a job and should be solely dedicated to Bitcoin is rather absurd because you can't just buy Bitcoin and feel relaxed without having something to do to pass the time because if that's the idea then you would probably temper with your coins.

Apt, the world has evolved and it is indeed crucial to teach kids about financial literacy and their future because the world has become a global village things are mostly digitalized. Cryptocurrency is digital and their understanding from early childhood can aid them for the world ahead.

Preparing your kids on investing in bitcoin is not bad but it shouldn't be their primary target, they have other stuff and knowledge to gain first atleast be educated and have entrepreneurial knowledge so that they will not be dependent on government or private jobs but can create something on their own in other to gain or have income. Because without having a source of income or earnings it will be a hindrance to their bitcoin journey since it's a long-term investment which requires funding to start and continually. They just have to know about bitcoin importance, it's significant and it's benefits but investing in bitcoin is personal choice for them.

When we are in a situation like this, we should create jobs for ourselves, we should stop waiting for the government to start doing everything for us, we can’t compare what was happening during the olden days with what’s happening currently, we don’t expect the government to employ everyone. But whenever you are in school, no matter what grade you are, make sure you learn a skill that I am sure will be useful if you graduate from school. After graduating from school, if you can’t secure any jobs,  you can just establish yourself.

I hope you know that if you don’t have something to do, you won’t have money to venture into bitcoin investment, and if you invest all that you have in bitcoin, you will need money for your daily activities. If you don’t have a source of income, you will end up selling all your investments just for survival.
 
You can’t just invest in bitcoin, and you will be expecting profit instantly. You will have to hold it for some time, so if you don’t have a source of income, you won’t be able to hold it, and you won’t be able to establish yourself.

I don't think forcing anyone into anything would have apositive effect on their mental health and we are talking about learning here, so I think it should be more like an educational thing than a forced thing, and moreover I don't think it would be a problem for then to caught up cause when kids are younger they tend to learn faster, all you need to do is tell then why crypto is a better future than the traditional banking system, then you must also teach them the basics like security and storing their assets, children tend to want to practice what they are taught more than adults and they won't waste time in wanting to get an experience so parents or tutors shoudl also be ready to take this lesson off mere words into practical at some point.


Mate the topic is on teaching your kids about investing in crypto, we alm know that creative thinking helps but at some point financial literacy is kind of a big problem in our present world since we can't survive on pay checks any more and would not want our children to work in that part, teaching our children about investment is a good idea and would a go a long way in there future too.

Nope will not force them if they don't like to do it since I believe that each one of us have different passion. So if I see them showing some interest to know about crypto then I would gladly teach them on what are those things they need to know and guide them towards good investment they could choose also to avoid them on possible scams and anything offer them unrealistic offers or claims.

But if they don't have any interest about crypto and they have other like then I would respect their decision about it since they can also be successful in life if they love their jobs or their selected craft since for sure they became more happier also be away on more larger stress or heavy pressure. Bitcoin investment is good but this is not for everyone that's why I will just let them to decide what path in life they choose to take and I'm here to guide them on their possible struggles also to support their decisions.

Parents always want the best for their children. And preparing their kids to invest in bitcoin is also highly possible. But as these children grow and develop their own passion from different aspects, parents can no longer hold the decision of their children and lead them to bitcoin investment because they are already grown adults and have their own decision making on how to better prepare for their future.

However, parents may suggest about bitcoin but they can’t hold guarantees if their kids will follow them. The least parents can do is to guide their kids and support them as to where their skills are and on what and where they’re comfortable of working.

Yes, that's true. It's not even like it was something that happened a century ago. We're talking of something that happened in the 70s and 80s in our dear country. Most of those ancients and ancestors we now have as political leaders were beneficiaries of that. That's why it pains me hard that they benefitted from a system that worked but are leaving a near collapsed system for the youth. The Nigerian state made everything conducive for them and that was how outsiders who weren't educated started wishing they were. The crave for formal education grew and every Tom, Dick and Harry wanted a piece of that formal  education. Anyway, the reality on ground now is that paper certification from tertiary institutions have become bastardized. It has lost its apparel and can't necessarily put food on anyone's table. Graduates hardly find jobs now except if holders of those certificates have high connection or know who has that connection. The bottom line for me is this – People should go to school to learn but not necessarily to get good jobs. If anyone wants to slave (work) for others, they should get skills  that will better position them for high paying jobs. Otherwise, people should get skills that can make them employers of labours and not employees.

BTW, learning how to trade is a life time skill most people underrate.

Every human being is very unique, there are many who don't want to be directed by their parents, there are even many who follow in the footsteps of their friends in terms of their careers, but as parents, we can only support what our children want, give them consideration so that they can think again, never push them too far, children are still very young and hurt, so be careful in giving advice, especially when it relates to their future.  but if i were a parent, i would educate my children about bitcoin and others.

You need to understand that investing in Bitcoin requires fund and that is what make us an investors.
If there is no funds to invest then there no way we could invest in Bitcoin and make the kind of profits we intend to make.
The market right now is doing well and for all holders, everyone is happy so when we are preparing the children to get education or not, anyone can invest in cryptocurrency and make money for themselves if the invest in the right project that would earn them profits.

Of course, being independent is part of our children who want to grow on their own without their parents control. That is understandable as we’ve been there too. However, if we aim to lead them on bitcoin investment, then we should have educated them while they’re still young because what they’ll learn earlier, they will never forget that when they mature.

But there’s still no assurance of that they will follow our lead. Parents should be more open with that. However, one thing is certain, if they will invest in bitcoin, they will definitely look for ways on how to start entering the market. But most of the time, their priority is to get stable or government job first so they can earn and eventually invest in bitcoin once their funds are sufficient enough.

This depends on individuality...
You seee -- "you can force a horse to the river but you can't force it to drink water"... They could choose not to follow your footsteps and that's no crime at all.. I've seen cases where kids grow to become bibliophilic -- that could majorly be about politics and nothing else.

---

without a doubt, some of your children could decide to follow your footsteps; but the most important thing is that you need to secure 'em with all the informations they need -- you don't wanna have them curse you for introducing them to something that ruined their lives entirely right?  Ofcourse, Bitcoin could be disastrous if not properly tutored

In those days, the number of individuals attending school was relatively low, resulting in a limited population of graduates. Consequently, job opportunities were not as scarce as they are today. This was primarily due to the smaller pool of qualified individuals vying for employment positions. Fast forward to the present day, the scenario has shifted drastically. With millions of graduates flooding the job market, competition for available positions has intensified exponentially.

Many of these graduates find themselves heavily reliant on the government to secure employment opportunities, viewing governmental agencies as their primary avenue for job acquisition.


If an individual lacks funds, they will be unable to invest in Bitcoin. Therefore, to embark on the journey of becoming a proficient investor, it's imperative to possess financial resources. Consequently, the most prudent course of action is to acquire a skill that holds value in the job market. By honing such a skill, one can generate income, which in turn enables them to enter the realm of Bitcoin investment. Thus, the initial step towards becoming a successful investor involves obtaining the means to participate in financial ventures like Bitcoin through the acquisition of a marketable skill set.

Honestly, this life we're living now is good for parents to engage their children with early investment or opening an account for them and be saving money inside so that once they grow up, they can easily have something to do with that money without waiting for a government job after graduating from school. Because that's the main issue we're facing now in our country, people's are graduating every day and there is no job for them. Seriously, you brought a good idea.

Your idea can be really helpful if our parents can think of it, but I actually like the way youths of today are doing they work hard and put food on their own table they didn't depends on their parents they always workout every day to get the little job for themselves, which is great work. Since so many people already know much about the Bitcoin investment, I think it will be good if those who already know the Bitcoin can tell those who have never done anything about it. So that we cannot depend on each other again, and everyone will have something to do.

Many people here will agree with you on preparing children for the future, as all bitcoin enthusiasts believe that bitcoin is the future of this generation. Bitcoin has spread to many different parts of the world, and its benefits for this generation should not be underestimated, as many people have found ways to improve their lives through bitcoin investment.

Government work is also not a bad job, and children should not be discouraged from applying for government jobs or forced to believe that bitcoin is the solution to all of their financial problems in the future. If we don't encourage children to embrace both when it's necessary, maybe we might never get a legalization of its use globally.

It only takes a government worker and a bitcoin enthusiast with prior knowledge of bitcoin to be able to make that happen when they reach that position, which can only be accomplished if they do not leave the government work, from which they can also learn in-depth political knowledge.

Pushing your children into a world of risks? And because you want to.
Bitcoin is not the only investment option out there. How about diversification and let them incline towards their interests?
If it doesn't work out the way you planned it, let's say, in their years Bitcoin is not as relevant, applause, you ruined them.
While most people may say, Bitcoin will be relevant in the next so so years, but atleast in this space, we take probabilities and possibilities into consideration.
You seem to be really enthusiastic,but just think of this. And I really see nothing wrong with good government jobs, I mean, there's even pension attached.

Education system is crooked which I agree but we also can't deny that it gives a minimum guarantee that when you got a degree you can join get a job and lead a very normal life so those who aren't privileged to take risk in their steps has to go through all this to start investing because we can't expect everyone to start with a capital, it comes only if we earn and there are steps we have to pass to become investor.

Yes, it is true that reading and writing and general insight are needed in the world of work but far from that, these talents are very useful for communication and survival in order to understand in trade or other social activities. When you have been given such facilities because these people are qualified from the fruit of diligence and study and get a degree.

Indeed, the luck factor, interests and experiences of each person are different, I experienced it myself, maybe this is part of fate but education is a form of effort and effort, of course for me it doesn't have to be from a background of what, where and for what because education is a necessity even though it is basic.

Non-formal education and religious collaboration are also important and do not rule out a brighter career or abundant wealth. because bitcoin can be understood and in the smallest units, and I think early education about bitcoin is also good among fundamentals, technology and opportunities.

First thing you must know is that success are not taught in school but at then our parents made it to look as if anyone who doesn't go school doesn't belong to the rich class today there lot of people who are not graduate but are one time multimillionaires and they created job for their following citizens. The thing is success is in mind and not certificate you hold, that is why you see many graduates out there not doing any job not because they aren't graduate but to me educational system has made many of us to be lazy today because we always think after graduation from higher institution the next thing is to get a white scholar job and began to work. But we have also forgotten that after graduation we can also set up our own business no matter how little it seems to be when properly nurtured it could turned to multi business within the period of 6 to 10 years of working for someone, but still bitcoin investment is also another cool way.

I think it's a good idea. Firstly needs educational stability.. after the end of education they will decided where the destination..yes we can guide about BTC and it's future and others business. Now a day we gathering knowledge about the BTC we should share with my children. No one wants to see themselves as a servant, everyone wants to do some work like themselves, holding BTC for them and keeping money DCA method a little bit of in every month.

I love the idea of educating the younger generation to be self dependant, and to be creative enough. but the fact of teaching children on how to invest in Bitcoin to create jobs for themselves I don't buy that idea.

For me I like to say let children be children don't bother them with a knowledge that is above them.
In the area of education, the formal educational system that was introduced has failed or is no longer working and as such we have to flow with the current movement of the world instead of going to acquire certificate why not teach us how to be productive in order not to beg for work.

Good idea, friend, but we also cannot ignore how important the stages of the educational process are for the development of children's intelligence. Every parent certainly wants the best for their children, but parents also cannot force their children to follow their wishes. They have their own ideals, if they are too forced to be what you want, they will become depressed and that is not good for their development.

Let them be what they want, you just need to try to approach them slowly while explaining the great potential that can be achieved from Bitcoin investment. Parents need to take a gentle approach to their children so they don't feel pressured, let them pursue their dreams while you slowly instruct them so they can become talented investors.

Many people this season want to be self-employed so they don't depend on educational Foundation richiness people depend currently on entrepreneurship and also on internet banking business and the other Internet business that the gives income based on rotation or it regularity, bitcoin currently has many adoptions based on recommendation of people who has invested in Bitcoin neither 3 years now or 5 years now those people are still in business of Bitcoin investment, so seeing people or parents encouraging their offspring to adopt the Education of Bitcoin is not astonished to me because I know quite well that many people will not value the White Collar job instead of being independent of it business

If talking about government jobs for survival I believe most people would not be able to attain higher height. I don't know about other countries but from what I have seen in my country government employment can't guarantee a man's success. Leaning is a perfect solution, learning in general not just the school education, op made mentioned of bitcoin investment, bitcoin investment is good but when there's no money to accumulate how can such investor keep up with the accumulation. Money is needed, even with the idea of needing money to invest doesn't mean citizens will have to wait for government employment, creativity, skill acquisition. I always love the idea of educating children about bitcoin as a digital currency, investment choice etc.

   Educating your child about Bitcoin does not necessarily means that the child should start investing immediately, remember is a child, every individuals knows the best way,time and how he/she will start the teaching,if the guardian are willing to.

   Preparing your child for Bitcoin investment does not mean that you start investing immediately rather can start with the forum posting which after needed merit the child starts with campaigns where he/she can start earning for themselves,and then start investing.

   In investing in Bitcoin,is not an easy task ,and so you need to start from the basic and understand it and how it works. It is better to put the children through these,so that they  will stand firm financially before they get to the age full responsibilities of their lives and other needs,it will even easy you of your financial responsibility as a guardian and strengthen you and your child financial. Also for future purpose and our countries economy.

   Government job are not reliable and to be trusted because most of them has to do with connections and for those that are not connected , there will be no job,but with Bitcoin the future is bright and secured,you don't need government job.

I'd support whatever they want to be when they grow older but I'd teach them the importance of investing. It's okay to be an employee whether in the public or the private sector.

It doesn't matter as long as they have financial education and they know how to manage their finances. For me, that's all that matters and they make their own money.

And when they grow older, they'll realize the importance of investing and why many rich people have gone through that path.

Preparing your children to face the economic challenges through the cryptocurrency world is not a bad idea. Because we all know that the government directly or indirectly have abandoned his citizens so even after the university education there will be no work for them as the Op stated it. So if we train the child on cryptocurrency investment then after their formal education then they can join the full investment of cryptocurrency and the freedom from the government jobs. And even they work, they can do the two jobs side by side.

As it is said I will train my children on that to avoid job seeking children.

Currently my son is only 6 years old. Right now I'm just trying to apply the best education. Right now I want my child to be a child who loves parents, obeys religious rules. After that I will direct to get the best education to achieve the goal, I will not let go I will continue to direct. Of course after adulthood I want to see him achieve success useful for the country and serve besides that of course I will also give advice to learn related to AI, Blockchain and of course other crypto Bitcoin. I want my son to know and master both.

Since I was born, the government has indeed contributed to the country's food supply and also the people's living needs, but we don't get it for free. I bought it with the money I got from work, a job I got myself and did it myself. Here the government has no direct relationship with me regarding my income or how I live. Yes, between our work and the government, there is often no connection (for those who work in private companies). So we actually bear our lives, not the government.

If you teach investment to your child, it means that you want to focus your child on doing freelance work, which in order to continue to be sustainable, your child must also make a profit every day.

Quite different from me, where I want my child to have only one advantage that can be developed into a professional without depending on government work. Our choices are not wrong, it's just the way we educate our children so they can become something special in the future.

Send your child to school while teaching about crypto currencies don't just throw them to investing in a young age, they need to learn also to blend-in, they should also have a a job from the start, and save and invest this is the proper way not just teach them investment, what will happen if they are not graduates? or learn something in the schools, they will be bullied, and will not have confidence, teach them while studying, in this case they will also learn how to multitask, also give them room to grow at the same time, they will also understand it, don't rush them but teach them along the way.

Yes, why choose when they can have both? the stability of a job in the Government if things go as expected (statu quo) while investing in BTC as a plan B just in case. And, to be honest, holding some satoshis isn't that difficult, some people talk as if they were totally incompatible things.

They are just over reacting on new things they see and got hype with current condition. But for sure later on these guys will realize that its important for them to have passive income and benefits from working on those institutions. They should not look for single investment only so much better for anyone if they could able to teach their children to have critical thinking on investment since once they adopt bitcoin while working passively on government institutions for sure they can get more better result with that.

Bitcoin market is unpredictable and for sure all of us don't want to get broke that's why its really better for us to have multiple options so that we can guarantee to have good future. Bitcoin investment is so good but we need to know that market is risky and unpredictable so there's still a chance that we possibly lose our money that's why its good to have that can provide passive income so that we can say we are fine when days of crisis come to us.

I also support the Op. Teaching or preparing your children on bitcoin to avoid government jobs does not mean. They are to invest in their young ages but you are just teaching them at the moment so that when they have finished their education in all the levels then you can ask them to invest in it. And if you didn't prepare them earlier before they graduate from school,

It is better in this way that, they know in their tender age so that when they grow up they will not stress themselves to learn but to key into investment. Remember the young age is not for investment but to learn and while the teenage age is for investment.

  I feel like, these coming generations will grow up with better understanding of the bitcoin and how it works, because over the years, Bitcoin has been one of the most valuable assets in this our generation and if not everyone but at least more than half of  the world population who has access to the internet have heard about bitcoin, even though it not all that is invested. Definitely it not everyone that will buy the idea of investing in something they cannot see. Some people likes to put their money in something more physical, it might be a person or service rendering to the people. This up coming generation ( the gen z ) with the help of the internet and of course the futuristic technology that is rapidly advancing, knowing a thing or two about bitcoin wouldn’t be a problem to them unless the person just doesn’t want to pick interest.
 Parent or guidance don’t need to enforce anything on their ward, a kid can grow up to become whatever he wants, I suggest that what you should be making awareness for parent and guidance is for their wards to grow up learning a skill. It can be anything, online skill, offline skill or even working on their talent. Parents just need to know the field their kid is good at so as to capitalize on the skill to make them better and efficient. Teaching them about bitcoin is okay but it is not enough, they need to know how to make this income first, because investing in bitcoin you need capital for a start then you can decide to either DCA in every month or week depends on the level of income. No one knows what the price of bitcoin will be in the next years to come,  it literally not in anybody hand to determine the price. It might be x2 or what we are currently seeing or it might be the opposite. Important thing is that the kid has to know his place in the society to be able to give back to the society according to his own preference.

Education should never be underrated because without education, we won’t be knowledgeable enough and become highly motivated to invest in bitcoin. Admit it or not, those who are successful in bitcoin are mostly those professionals who have gained a college degree. So it comes to say that being educated should be the first goal, and afterwards the goal of investment comes.

And being educated means you can manage to get a more decent job, compared to those who chose not to finish their schooling and just focus on investing goals. However, when it comes to high profitability, investment is only capable of that.

Perfectly said I think before one can think of making investment, first you need to be educated because if you're not educated enough probably you won't even know the steps to take when investing, except you're been enroll  in most of this investment tutorial I think they will  catch up, but  there are some things that they are suppose to know in educational aspect  adding it together with the one that they are been thought in the investment tutorial, I think this will make you learn more faster.

This means that we are forcing our children to do what we desire and not letting them choose the life they would like. I'd never see it wrong working for the government. Besides, while working we still can invest in Bitcoin.

Can we rely on our profit from investing in Bitcoin is enough for us to provide our needs? Not really especially for small investors. Therefore, I disagree with such an idea. Why don't suggest working on both OP because investing needs money which means that we need other sources of income to support our investment plan.

It will be better for me to prepare my children for investment in general and not just investment in Bitcoin. I would want to teach my children to be able to identify and spot investment opportunities and take advantage of them not just only Bitcoin because Bitcoin investment is not only the profitable investment that there is. There are some special skills that can ensure wealth, and investments/knowing what to invest in and the proper way to do so is one of those skills that can assure wealth.

It is not really forcing them, just guiding in a better direction from your experience.

While bitcoin investment has become a weapon against poverty, but we are also aware that bitcoin is still uncertain and uncontrollable, hence relying on it alone might also put our children’s future at risk. This is why we don’t need to force our children to stick on bitcoin, let them stick to their own choice with their life careers. If they are open to invest in bitcoin and allocate most of their time and funds, then it’s good for them and for bitcoin as well. But if they want to pursue applying for a position in government jobs and let bitcoin as their side hustle, I guess for me that way is more secured and less risky to say.

Theres is nothing wrong with teaching your child how to handle money and investment properly just doing this as for the basic understanding of a person, but I guess it still seems ideal if they have prior knowledge, there's nothing wrong with the government job as long as it pays well some people work on those and use the crypto for additional investments so they can have an extra money with the ride of the market. People who already know bitcoin would like to push others because they know to themselves they didnt have the chance and they would like to push the young ones so at an early age they can enlighten and become a millionaires once they get growing, still we need to consider that they are still a child who needs to enjoy the life and stop giving pressure on them.

Seems like this topic is ideal in economics just my cents.

There's a lot of thing we can do outside while deciding to invest on bitcoin and it really doesn't need our full attentions since any time we can spend time to watch on our investments. Also not everytime we can earn glory on bitcoin so maybe I will just at least introduce it to them and not forcing them to like it since its up for them to decide whether they like to participate or not since what's important to me is they choose what path or career they want to take.

If they want to work on government agencies then its fine, if want to explore other field then go as long as they don't do illegal things then I support them and let them participate on any bitcoin investment once they are ready.

It doesn't force our children. We just let our children to have another option because it is not easy to get the government jobs nowadays. Not everyone can join the government jobs because it is limited jobs, meanwhile everyone can invest in Bitcoin because it is available for any one. However, it is nice if our children can join the government and have bitcoin investment as well.

It depends on our capital. If we invest in a big capital, it can be enough to fulfill our needs. But if we only invest in a small capital, it surely won't be enough for providing our needs. Well, I think it is better to not rely on the investment only. We need to have another job such as trading, the government jobs, or other jobs in real life.

You're right mate. Investing won’t be successful if you don’t have stable job in the first place. It’s always better to look for a real job first and government jobs are the best offers, and when you’ve gained extra profits from your salary, then that’s the best time to enter a potential investment like bitcoin. But first and foremost, invest not to gain for real quick profits, but invest for long term as bitcoin is certainly for long term investment. Hodling is the key, and that will only be possible if you have sufficient amount of budget for everyday survival that you can get from your real job. Investing should only be your side hustle, not definitely your main source of income.

We all know that investing is a good thing for everyone of us to put our funds in a place that will keep growing so that we can keep making money from where we have invested the fund. But is op trying to tell me that we should prepare the children for investment in Bitcoin when they ought to go to school and get education of being a better persons in the future.

 Do not forget that it's only people that have the funds that could invest not those that are eating hand to mouth. There are regions when getting job after school is not an easy attempt but other regions would compel you to go to school and get the education so that when you are done you can come back and look for a job that suit your education.

Preparing Ur children for investment is not a bad ideas and exposing job opportunities working for the government create more income for investment as a child working,
while he or her working to make income can still invest in Bitcoin and earn more income while working for the government
It now  grantees you earning from both sides..

How about preparing them for both? Because you as a father or mother can't possibly know whats best for your kids, because they have their goals before coming into this earth, do not push your kids into anything thinking that its for their sakes, you live your life, you had your time, let them grow and support them in every possible way.

When I was young my father wanted me to become a writer and my mother want me to be a doctor, none of this dreams come to past because I didn't have a passion for both, you really can't tell what will make your child or children become great in future, just guide them right.

Teach them about Bitcoin and advise them to purse whatever they want, unless its an evil way, then you can advise against it, but if they are trying to go the right path, just support them, you might never know what they can become.

Why "Bitcoin Investment" and not Government Jobs? Why not Both,
Or, have them Create their Own Chain and get into AI. That's the Other Option, just saying eventually the Government has to Figure out Things for Everyone once the Robots take over the Workforce, and the Billionaires and Trillionaires will be like living in the Ocean and Space making their Own Pirate Nations and Colonies and Things.

But until then, they should get X Job and Invest in? Bitcoin? I think maybe Invest in more than Bitcoin, but Right now, get X Job and Invest in Coins and Tokens we could just say.

I'm Teaching Certifications as a way to get Skills for Work:

I like this suggestion as it reminds me of wasted opportunities it has been doing some things we did as children and youths. The worst is the mindset we had which is go to school, graduate and get a job... this was the worst advice I received as an individual. It limited me and many others to just focusing on the academic work without expanding our thinking to other areas of life that would have yielded better results today. Assuming that I grew up not fixated on graduating and getting a job, perhaps I would have been better than I am today because as a student, I had access to little funds which if I had invested part of that into Bitcoin or at least saved them with the hope of starting up a business, that would have been better than waiting to graduate and start earning salary. This is not a form of regrets but just a personal reflection and with what I know now, I'm sure my children will do better than me.

In the scenario that OP painted, we do not actually know if the child will prefer bitcoin investment to government work or vice versa. So, it is safe not to assume anything. However, a child will grow up to love and cherish what is being practiced in his immediate environment.

I support you much here. Bitcoin investment is not a job and neither will it stop someone from taking a job. It is passive investment. One can be a government worker and still invest in bitcoin. Why choose one if you can conveniently do the two.

We should not Force our children to learn bitcoin when they are not ready to know what is Bitcoin only thing is that we make some mistakes when it come in terms of investment, as the Investor he don't need to force your children to know my investment you are doing you will allow them to develop the interest for such investment before you will pick up interest in order to make sure they have understand what investment is all about because when you start at the earlier stage to teach your children bitcoin investment there will deviate from the area of concentration, what is why we have to understand the procedures of investment first before we pass the Knowledge with our children

Not just only about bitcoin but it is good for parents to teach their kids to know the importance of having a skill when they are young, it will really help them how generate money for themselves when they are still young with no much responsibility on them. If parents teach their kids how to be wise financially I don't think their kids will be far from knowing bitcoin, because when people are very enlighten about investment what ever that has to do with value they would .  Bitcoin is a good investment,  and any parents who have the knowledge and of bitcoin and keep it to themselves without their children getting to know bitcoin is wrong idea. 

I don't see anything wrong if your kid grows up and start to have a job in the government. If they like the culture and working place on that government job then I'd be more happy to support my child working with the government. Not everyone can accept any risk that when you tell them that they have the chance to lose the value of their money, they'd stick to their jobs and be stable with it. But still, I'd teach them to invest and no matter what type of investment they will be in, I'll still support them but of course, the priority is Bitcoin.

as I have said before is good to bring up your children in a good foundation of knowing what you know so far so therefore it is not mandatory from my own perspective or observation that your children must know they concept of Bitcoin or in Venture into bitcoin as you venture into Bitcoin anyone who want to know Bitcoin fully inform you it's not something that you forcefully enroll them into why they have more intention to be a bitcoin member or a bitcoin family, we have order opportunities as you said we cannot depend on one as we may see Bitcoin has the highest concept of making money or investing our money there is other varieties that can also fetch you money

I get it that this is a Bitcoin forum but all you have written can be gotten from all sorts of successful investment and not just Bitcoin investment. What I'm trying to say is preparing your children to be able to spot what assets are from the crowd is what should be emphasize on here because we don't know of the future. Don't just teach your kids about investing in Bitcoin but teach them financial education and how to manage their money properly because they can make profits yet not know how to manage it which will make them to lose those profits trying to make good use of them.

Governments job are so old fashion, you can create a job out of anything nowadays because of the internet. You don't have to be answering "Yes sir" to someone else before you can make a good living for yourself. Jobs might be a thing of the past in the future as more advanced technology dominant and take over our jobs because they'll be doing it more effectively and less time consuming too (meaning they'll be more productive).

Prepare your children for the future, teach them how to buy and hodl Bitcoin. If you're very good at trading you can also start teaching them how to do this too but make them understand that not every Bitcoin is meant to be traded, some should be used as capital gain investments through hodling.

Preparing our children for Bitcoin investment instead of government jobs can be a good initiative for all parents. But here's the thing if our kids are not ready to learn about bitcoin or he doesn't want to learn I think we shouldn't force him about bitcoin investment. Every parent has a responsibility towards their child and they try to guide their child in the right direction. But that doesn't mean that children should be taught anything by force.

There are many parents who want their children to become doctors, engineers and government employees but it turns out that their children want the opposite i.e. they want to earn as they wish. If you force your child to invest in Bitcoin if he doesn't understand or want to know about investing then your wish will not make sense. We must first understand what our children want and nurture them accordingly otherwise they may go astray and ruin their future.

That is a great idea. And I also plan to teach my children about Blockchain and Bitcoin. But I will not force my child to become a trader or Bitcoin holder and not work in the government. I will just try to foster my child's interest in crypto. And I will still support what my child wants. If he wants to work in government I will not forbid him but I will also teach him not to be a corporate slave and continue working. I think to be successful one has to start a business.

It's a nice thing to do by instilling that aspect of investment into the minds of your offsprings, but it's not a necessity that you will have to dictate for them, you know that children of nowadays are very smart and intelligent, so I believe that as they are, they have one thing in their lives that they have passion for, so it's best you show them the benefits of being an investor and also give them the free will to choose the career they want for their selfs, because if it's a career they have passion for, they will definitely be very good at it, because That's The area they have love and passion for.


On the Bitcoin investment, just as I have already said, it is best you show them and teaches them the benefits attached to it if as a long term investor in Bitcoin, but give them the free will to choose.

Education is one of the keys we need to seek for so we can keep getting the knowledge that would help us to keep surging high in awareness that would keep helping us to get to where we ought to be. We don't to always rely on the government for funds but trying other means to make sure that we get what we really need to do to set us on a higher scale.
Bitcoin investment is a nice approach but we should also know the dangers that are involved as either trader or investor.

Although investing in Bitcoin is a very good idea for our children but we shouldn't talk about it as something that come with profit easily. We should always remember the risk involved in it and we should make sure anyone coming in through us is informed about this.

for some reason we force what is considered good enough and there is no harm in it.
our children to learn the basics in government to try.

although there must be more positive thinking for our children in the future
accompanied by investing in our children's future even though we prepare from an early age,

It's much better with careful preparation to lead the path they like, of course it's better without any coercion.

There's the point you're making, and there's this: those government jobs can also be sources of funds for investing in Bitcoin, imagine not having a source of income and then you want to incest in Bitcoin. No matter how you plan on twisting the scenario, it's not a smart move. DCA, holding, the major investment strategies need a steady source of income, you can't DCA if there's no source of income to take funds from, and holding when you have no money at hand. If the government job serves as a good source to find Bitcoin investment, I don't see why it should be talked down on. There has to be a stream of income for the Bitcoin investment to work

Risks is definitely what we lived for because it's the certain fuel to ginger our movement. Free from the bandage of dormant positions, whic will mean one of the tremendous winnings. Our children are next in line and it's our responsibilities to ensure we open them to the wide world, advanced than the normal features and leading them to the future. It's clearly stated out and this time, we should be more concern about the crypto and also having good time to invest in bitcoin. It's advisable on our end to ensure we're grabbing the golden spots of earnings, that will be in a row.

Yes education is one of the first thing to be considered which is very important to everyone because without education one will be ignorant of certain things in life which is beneficial to him. Without being educated or have the knowledge of something it is very difficult for us to pass the knowledge to someone else and when it comes to Bitcoin investments it takes a great knowledge to succeed in the investment and understanding that it doesn't end well at times will help you not to rely on it with everything you have.

What you have said is one of the best investment methods in Bitcoin and recommended investment method is perfect for Dollar Cost Averaging method. But OP wants to make a different point with his post i.e. he wants to say prepare your children for investing in bitcoin not for government jobs. That is, Opie wanted to highlight the difference between government jobs and investing in Bitcoin.

There has been a trend among us these days that once we get a government job we don't have to do anything else for which people prefer government jobs above all else. OP may have tried to explain the difference so that people don't have this misconception so that people are not bound by the walls of government jobs. Government jobs are subservient i.e. you have to do work according to the instructions of others and wait for a fixed amount of salary at the end of the month. But if we can educate our children about investing in Bitcoin and make them investors then they can work independently and earn money. But for this we need to first educate our children in good education and then inform them about investing in Bitcoin.

For the change in society we need education because with better education and system we can bring good changes and things can go well-developed, but sadly we have nothing available for the all in current world while in developed countries things are well organize, and now they are taking good benefit of this all with they are preparing their next generation with all advance methods which are going to help them for investing and having good advantage of this all but in developing countries things are not established, and we are suffering with bans and well under control policies which are not allowing peoples to live freely and have anything good for their life and their kids future as well even as we are having many countries are fail to give clear water then how can we expect they will allow things like these.

Well, there's that. But personally, I believe in the rule of multiple income streams, and as such a 'main job' (government jobs) should be able to act as a kind of fund source for other investments to a large extent, even if a person only has one government job, they can always be Bitcoin investors, it's a part time thing.
If someone happens to work two jobs, then invests in Bitcoin,it's still a plus, however, government jobs are good, so if you do not have a job, not just government jobs, there's almost no way to fund your BTC investment. And then if the job isn't good enough, you'll find that you may not be able to keep up.
Prepare your kids to get good jobs and then invest in Bitcoin.

that is why I am preparing my children into learning crypto(but i do not hinder them from studying because that is their privilege and my obligation)

but now I am sending my eldest to a crypto coach to learn trading and understand blockchain completely (of course i am also guiding Him)

I believe that aside from dayjob, they also need to have knowledge in passive income like what crypto can bring.

Op your points are valid.Preparing your children for Bitcoin investment is really something that speaks for the future since government jobs are not certain and cannot be trusted in the future.Children are unique when it comes to choice,most children might pick up the interest of investing on bitcoin while some might not,since Bitcoin investment is not the only alternative to be prosperous in the future,there are skills and online job to acquire.Its best you train your children to explore on different areas of life and not relying on job opportunity from governments because the government might fail.
