Why bother to save for your children?

 

While children bring their own blessings, they also cost a great deal of money. Not just now, but in years to come. Fortunately the one thing children have is time. So it makes sense to start investing for them now, to give them every opportunity to look forward to a brighter financial future and help you prepare for the expenses you'll face as they grow up. Things like:

 

  • getting them through primary and secondary education

  • university fees and further education

  • helping them fund a gap year or travel

  • buying their first car

  • paying for a wedding

  • helping them get their first step on the property ladder

 

It's easy to think things will take care of themselves. But the reality is that most of us underestimate the true cost of paying for the milestones in our children's lives.
