When parents lot their boys spend money foolishly they do
the boys HARM instcud of good. When a father and mother
COMPEL, if must be, their boys to bank a pr.rt of the money
they earn, they start thcin on the road to SUCCESS, reliability
and independence.
And maybe the parents will some day NEED their boys'
support.
Start YOUR boys to bunking their money today. Some
day soon they will thank you.
