I feel like I don’t have kids right now. I almost starting talking to myself “Hey _____ Elon musk isn’t a trillionaire anymore, we have a shot at beating him.”

My kid loves.. or did love talking about money and being rich. Even if we’re not “technically” we just call ourselves that. He started loving money as early as he could speak and understand that money = things he wants. Kids in school, literally feel like I’m about to talk to myself out loud all day.

It is not a bad thing for your child to be interested in making money. In fact, it can be a very positive development. However, as a Zevist, it is important to teach your child to use money for higher purposes rather than simply spending it on unnecessary things that will have little or no lasting value.

There are many wealthy people who spend their fortunes on material possessions that will not matter to them ten years from now and will contribute little, if anything, to the advancement of humanity. We need more people who are passionate about making money, not to buy Lamborghinis and designer clothes, but to fund the advancement of humanity, support spiritual growth, and invest in technological and scientific developments that can improve the world.

The Temple of Zeus, for example, represents a meaningful cause that could be worthy of investment, both for one's own spiritual development and for the evolution of humanity.

Do not discourage your child from making money simply because money can be misused. Money itself is not inherently bad; it is a tool, and its value ultimately depends on how it is earned, how it is used, and what it helps accomplish.

The most important lesson is not to teach your child to avoid making money, but to teach them to pursue wealth with a higher purpose. Encourage them to think beyond personal consumption and consider how their financial success could contribute to spiritual enlightenment, human progress, and a better future for themselves and for all. What matters most is not simply how much money they want to accumulate, but what they choose to do with it.

I also would recommend reading the ethic about World Improvement:

Just like Brother Kouros mentioned above, and to what potential fear you may have, there are those who make large sums of money, millionaires even, who end up lacking purpose and fulfillment. Teach your child about the importance of the two, that way their ability to make more money will supplement that purpose, and supplement that fulfillment.
