A grump.<\/p>\n<p>The others would be life enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>Different things helped people get through this phase.<\/p>\n<p>For once, high school was flush with books to read. Yes, pun intended. Fun books to read, not the complex, tiresome arithmetic books. Novels.<\/p>\n<p>The favorite books were the inspirational kind.<\/p>\n<p>Books like <em>Think Big<\/em>, by Ben Carson. An incredible brain surgeon\u2019s story of humble beginnings in a single-parent household fraught with challenges to conquer the world of medicine. That book would leave your head throbbing. For a week or so, you\u2019d be so high and psyched on inspiration that you\u2019d actually attempt Physics assignments.<\/p>\n<p>The second week, you\u2019d be back to copy pasting Mark\u2019s assignments.<\/p>\n<p>Mark was a celebrated, self-confessed Grump. School heads of departments would almost get into physical fights to have him as a prefect or captain in their departments.<\/p>\n<p>Another book that ranked closely was <em>Rich Dad, Poor Dad<\/em>, an emasculate rendition of bad and super-bad parenting by Robert Kiyosaki, and Sharon Lechter. On paper, it advocates the importance of financial literacy, and education.<\/p>\n<p>In reality, the book <em>Rich Dad, Poor Dad<\/em> would be an orthodox scale we\u2019d use to gauge our parents &#8211; and they\u2019d always be found wanting. They\u2019d hopelessly fall short of the ideal and accepted levels of parenting.<\/p>\n<p>Not once, did I see a high school kid content, as appertains to parenting levels. The levels were inadvertently raised by these inspirational books!<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no proof yet, but this generation has spawned the modern inspirational speakers, and entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n<p>A motivational speaker cum entrepreneur up on stage, in a sharp, rented Italian suit will go:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI own a multi-million dairy business with hundreds of dairy cows and employs thousands of workers on a daily basis. I started all this<\/em> &#8211; pause for effect &#8211; <em>with a pair of gumboots\u2026.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Well, as a parent now, take it as a task to teach your kids the mathematics of money.<\/p>\n<p>If so inclined, every kid should learn financial accounting, and perfect it. Then, savings discipline. Luckily, there are structures and banking partners helping you to start as early as possible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/11\/jumbo2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-151111\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/11\/jumbo2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/11\/jumbo2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/11\/jumbo2-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/11\/jumbo2-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/campaign.co-opbank.co.ke\/jumbo-junior\/?utm_source=ghafla&amp;utm_medium=blogger%20banners&amp;utm_campaign=Jumbo%20Junior\">The Jumbo Junior Bank Account<\/a>, with Co-op Bank.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/campaign.co-opbank.co.ke\/jumbo-junior\/?utm_source=ghafla&amp;utm_medium=blogger%20banners&amp;utm_campaign=Jumbo%20Junior\">Co-op Bank<\/a> has a transitional account that\u2019s a perfect tool to teach the saving culture to kids, and financial discipline that will be beneficial in their adulthood.
