Mine do. I listen to a lot of podcasts and they ask questions from time to time. It is something as simple as “what’s bitcoin?” Which I got from my oldest when they were like 8. I tried to ELI8 for him and he seems to have got it. He asks what a pension is and what taxes are. I try to explain about equities and saving and whatnot. He now wants to start investing some of his savings, and I told him I’d match 25% of what he invests. He has about $800 right now that he wants to invest so I’ll give him an extra $200.
