Other findings in the survey:
• An overwhelming majority of
parents—84 percent—want their children to learn the value of money through hard
work. However, that was a drop from 95 percent in 2000.
• Sixty-one
percent of the parents in 2003 worried about spoiling their children; that
figure was 56 percent in 2000.
• While half of the respondents said
spiritual or religious faith is important to them, and three-quarters believe in
a higher power, only one-third said they attend religious services once or more
a month.
• Economic optimism rose substantially: 66 percent of the
respondents in 2003 expected the economy to improve within a year compared with
43 percent in 2000.
The survey, conducted on the Internet by Harris
Interactive and released in October 2003, questioned 712 investors with
annual income of at least $150,000 and assets of $500,000.
