Victor's family of three kids is one to admire, two girls and a boy. Anna being the last born at age 3, Lucy the eldest is 11 years old while boy child Alan is 7. Cute kids you would imagine, I love a family of this kind.

Kids of this age are smart, you would be fooling yourself comparing kids of 40 years ago to this age, you will be amazed at what kids can do given a device and internet, their curiosity level and exposure level is on a different level compare to kids form the 70s, 80s.

Anna at 3 is already thinking like an entrepreneur, she asks the father everyday without fail for R5 ($0.33) and whenever Victor gives her R10, Anna would refuse and insist on R5 saying

mommy will take it from me, I only want R5

So Victor pays R5 to her cute little daughter everyday and has no clue what she does with the R5. It will be interesting to find out, I am actually curious on that.
I suspect she is saving those R5 because Anna have asked her dad several times to buy every kind of sweet there is for her, a table and a chair so she can display them for sale.
Could she be saving up those R5? my guess is yes. Anna at 3 is already thinking like an entrepreneur adult and looking at starting a business, very admirable of her.

Alan from what I gathered from Victor isn't much, he wants to be an IT specialist when he grows up, he is very good with devices, internet and surprises the dad in moving files from one device to the other which the dad often say

that file is too big to send

Alan would get it done leaving Victor wondering how his little boy pulled that off...

Victor loves his kid, a good daddy should and share things with his kids. Lucy being the eldest is adorable, daddy loves her so daddy let her have access to his banking App and bank card whenever she needs to buy something.

Lucy asked dad one day for R200 ($13.6) and daddy's response was I don't have money. Lucy asked for daddy's phone to see if Victor was telling the truth or not.
Lucy discovered her dad had no money, upon navigating the App in minutes, R5000 ($334) showed up in Victor's account that was almost zero balance.

So what did Lucy do? Lucy saw a pre-approved loan offer in her dad's banking App and applied for it without asking the dad. Being a pre-approved loan and the banks baiting Victor with R5000, the loan was approved in no time. Lucy transferred R200 to herself with excitement she showed daddy

Hey daddy now you have money!

Lucy explained how she generated money for dad in minutes!

This is a real life story, the names used are for writing purpose with Victor being my employer for the freelance Telecom project I do.

The point is I admire all these three kids, they are smart, Victor is lucky to have such kids. I do however, think they need financial literacy instilled in them. Get Anna to realize she is thinking like an entrepreneur and go to the extent in helping her execute her business plan.
Alan wanting to be an IT specialist is awesome, support him and let him know about money.
Lucy need to be thought the banks are not on her side, she shouldn't be falling for those bank loans at that age.

Kids are adorable, they are the future, they need to be enlighten on financial literacy and not live the life of debt majority of the adult population now lives miserably.

Kids, I love them!
