40-45 years ago, an article was in Readers’ Digest. The author’s parents started giving him $1 each week at age 5. However, he only received 50 cents. The balance went into savings with a goal of $20. He could spend the 50 cents anyway he wanted: no strings. After 40 weeks, he got the entire $20. He could spend the $20 anyway he wanted: no strings.

At age 6, allowance was increased by $1, and the goal was increased by $20. After about 40 weeks, he received the entire $40, with no strings. Each birthday allowance went up $1 and goal went up $20. In just a few years, he understood the power of saving. When he had a paper route, he saved all he earned. When he graduated from college, he bought his first house–for cash!

I’d like to find the original article or the author. I expect the author is in his mid- to late-sixties.

Thank you. Rich
