Great question. Some friends and family members like to push our buttons or pick on others as they do not have the same financial self control or plan. Focusing on making good educated saving and investing plans will serve you and family well in the long run. Family and friends will copy what you do to a point.
It would be great to be able to share what we have learned with friends but often this is difficult as many people are not ready to hear about things like retirement savings until it is too late. I focus on teaching my children about finances, it took a while for the two older ones to listen but now they do. My 17 yr old is really interest now that has been playing the stock game in his economic class.
How did you learn what you know about finances? It is not normally something we just pick up along the way, you need to be interested. I started reading Money when I was 12, I was a finance geek and liked it.
