Several regular people in New York City were asked about the best and worst financial advice they ever received. In most instances people were told by their parents to save money for a rainy day, retirement, and use a budget. In a few cases, individuals were advised to spend while they were young and enjoy life to the fullest – people often ignored this advice and followed their instincts to spend wisely. We get many of our earliest memories about money from our parents and this often informs our views and habits about money for the rest of our lives. We can learn throughout our lives and this will make a difference in how we spend, save, and invest.
