How to set up a savings account for your children

It's never too early to start putting money away

If you have very young children, you might not think that they need a bank account just yet. But there바카라 게임 웹사이트s no better time than the present to begin socking money away for them. Having an account that is dedicated to your child바카라 게임 웹사이트s expenses means that you바카라 게임 웹사이트ll have funds to draw from for summer camps, violin lessons, a new sport or school trips. And eventually, they can use the funds for larger expenses, like a car, and ultimately, college. Opening an AccountYou could open a savings account at your current bank, but before you do that, it바카라 게임 웹사이트s worth taking the time to investigate your options. Nichol Beckstrand, president of Sunrise Banks, suggests asking yourself whether you want your minor to have access to their money and whether you want them to be able to receive gifts; those criteria will affect which type of account you choose. Earning While You Save Your money can grow over time. There are many online banks that offer high interest savings accounts, where you could earn 1.5% APY, or even higher in some cases. Marcus by Goldman Sachs offers high-yield interest savings accounts with a rate of 1.6%, which is four times more than the national average, according to the company. Limiting Your Access There may be times when you need to withdraw funds from your child바카라 게임 웹사이트s account for purposes other than child-related expenses. Unless it바카라 게임 웹사이트s an emergency, Beckstrand advises against doing so. 바카라 게임 웹사이트Think about opening an account that you cannot automatically transfer out of 바카라 게임 웹사이트 limiting your own ability to spend the money helps to keep the savings intact,바카라 게임 웹사이트 he says. Obviously, if you absolutely need to withdraw from the account, do so, but pay it back when you can. Teaching ResponsibilityA bank account also presents a perfect opportunity to teach your child about money. Kids aren바카라 게임 웹사이트t born understanding how money works, and the concept of delayed gratification can be a challenge for them (and us!). "Take advantage of your influence as a financial role model and help kids learn basic concepts of finance and saving,바카라 게임 웹사이트 says Diane Morais, president of Consumer & Commercial Banking Products at Ally Bank, Once kids are ready for an allowance, show them how to divvy up their bounty between savings, sharing (i.e., for charity or gifts), and spending, she advises. 바카라 게임 웹사이트This can help even the youngest children learn self-discipline.".Giving Kids AccessDuring the teen years, kids may start to have expenses of their own, so it바카라 게임 웹사이트s a good time for them to become familiar with how transacting and budgeting works. Morais suggests a pre-paid credit card for this purpose. 바카라 게임 웹사이트This way, teens can track how much they바카라 게임 웹사이트ve spent and how much they have left. Being able to manage electronic money can be a valuable skill when it바카라 게임 웹사이트s time for them to apply for their own accounts.바카라 게임 웹사이트 A debit card paired with the account you have set up for them is another option, but if you would rather not run the risk of your child dipping too heavily into that account, open a separate one with a debit card that is solely theirs.
