Even Warren Buffett Started With Just 3 Shares

Just a little tid bit to support the fact that one share of stock can change a kids life forever! At age 11, Warren Buffett bought his first stock (I assume with his dad’s help) – Cities Services (now known as Citgo Petroleum). I’d love to say it was just one share but it’s pretty close. The rest is history.

It never too early to teach your kids about money and stocks. Imagine what they can do with this critical knowledege.
