Why kids are ploughing their pocket money into crypto
On the bus the other day, I was struck by a conversation a young teen was having on his mobile. Barely 13 or 14 years old, he was talking about how much he was transferring into his crypto account – $250 here and $100 here. 💥💫
Aside from his surprising level of wealth, what stood out was the confidence this pint-sized teen had in his transactions.
Crypto dad Nathan Carloss has seen similar confidence in his 11-year-old son, Lachlan, since he began investing in crypto in 2022. The father of three wanted to help his son increase the pocket money he received from his grandparents and plastic bottle returns.
“My son stored his earnings in a bottle. I told him you can make your money work for you,” Carloss says. “I started to educate him on the basics of investing like property, shares and crypto.”#BTC #GT #ETH #比特币
