It can be anything from documents, objects, pictures, etc.

If someone already list what you would've said , go on to the next thing on your list.

Also put a brief description on why.

And if you don't have a kid , imagine your are passing this down to younger self .

Teach them to understand time is the most valuable commodity in human existence, not money.

Why: It'll make them understand that the most important thing is to enjoy and value their time correctly. Money is a tool that you need, it is not what makes you happy.

Having them understand that.. they will understand this situation that I have realized:

Situation: "You are with your best friends and family, all of you doing suffocating belly laughs because you're having the time of your life." - If you freeze that moment, you realize that is one of the best and enjoyable moments you can have in your existence. If you were in a living room in in a small room with boring furniture...it'd be the same enjoy ability and happiness as if the same scenario took place in a mansion in Miami."

If more people thought like that, they'd be less negative shyt in this world.

@Prof.uNorthodox Def agree about distractions!

I would teach them about investing - in the general sense. Learn to invest in yourself, in others, your community, and your money.

Why: A lot of people don't understand this principle and end up in bad financial situations. Investing in your community and others is the best way to give back whether it be time, money, or resources.

I've actually thought about this many years ago (still no children 24 years old) and I realized that besides the importance of knowledge and things you can teach them, I've decided to hand down these items.


ALL OF MY GAMING SYSTEMS (I LITERALLY HAVE THEM ALL)

ALL OF MY SLAM MAGAZINES (have every issue since 98)

ALL MY BOOKS (over 350 different titles)

ALL MY MOVIES (over 400 DVDs and blue rays)

That should give them relative insight into how I grew up and what I was interested in



OH shyt!!! And !! My entire shoe collection

(Every jordan 1-20)

Plus over 40 pairs of randoms


My kid is going to love me
