According to a University of Cambridge study, our beliefs around money are cemented by the age of seven. This means that long before you’ve started high school or gotten your first part-time job, you’ve already developed some subconscious financial habits.
Some of these approaches to money don’t serve us — such as developing a shopping addiction. But others, such as investing early and for the long term (through an investing app, such as the Sharesies platform) — can help you set yourself up for the future.
