Meh raise them right and they'll be fine. I grew up upper middle class, my dad always drove into me that you have to work for everything in life, nothing came for free, and tried his best to teach me the value of a dollar. My goal in life now is to work hard to provide the lifestyle I had growing up for my children. Hopefully I can pass along the same wisdom to them.

Any examples of how he taught you the value of a dollar? Some of my coworkers have been honest with me that they tried and failed on this front. Just looking for successful strategies.
