I will never forget the day as a young child riding in the back seat of our years-old car, Mama and Daddy were talking very quietly about not having enough money to buy something.

I immediately piped in that we could just "write a check".

They explained to me that a check was good only if there was money in the bank to "cover" the amount of the check. They also made a point of also explaining that people should not buy things they can't afford.

They took my suggestion seriously and, as usual, did NOT talk down to me. It was good to have role models who handled their money well and loved and respected me as a person--VET.
