The story of the three little pigs teaches children about the importance of building a strong financial house. The first pig’s straw house represents a lack of planning and preparation, while the second pig’s stick house symbolizes some effort but still falls short. Only the third pig’s brick house, built with careful planning, research, and consultation, is able to withstand the wolf’s attacks. This story highlights the value of hard work, knowing your limits, avoiding shortcuts, and being philanthropic in financial planning. It encourages children to build a solid foundation and be prepared for unexpected challenges.
