I keep meaning to watch that one , it started out as a 24 episode OVA and then became a TV series afterwards right ? <| sep |> No , I ' m upset that this sub isn ' t called rLiberal . <| sep |> My parents taught me about the value of savings on every day except holidays . Holidaysvacations are the splurges we savedbudgeted for throughout the year . In my opinion , this would make saving feel like something that rains out the fun rather than an important aspect of financial management . Require him to save a certain amount of his allowanceearning , be open about how you have nice things through careful savings , when he gets his first job talk about the importance of saving for future expenses like education and retirement and explain compound interest , tax brackets , etc , but this feels like you haven ' t been doing any of those things and think making a big deal of it on his birthday is going to make up for it .
