...children are already bombarded with opportunities to spend money, and the options are about to explode through online shopping geared specifically toward kids. Several new websites, such as Icanbuy, Rocketcash and DoughNet, will set up accounts in a child's name.

...savings-bond programs, would do well to address some old problems first. The main one: some $6.5 billion of savings bonds are no longer accruing interest because they are 30 or 40 years old. Yet they go unredeemed. Many of them are tucked in a drawer or safe-deposit box, and the owner, who may have inherited them, has no idea that the bonds have matured. If you own savings bonds, check the dates. At minimum, any bonds that are no longer accruing interest should be converted into newer bonds that do.

When I was laughed out of Citibank with my jar a few years ago, I was told to roll my pennies and write my name and 14-digit account number on every roll. Then the bank would accept them--for deposit only, the sum to be held against my account until the bank got around to its own count. The message seemed clear: even banks don't want pennies. By the way, that penny dish at many checkout points is a nice idea, but it doesn't help. I contribute often but rarely withdraw because I wither under the lethal...
