"First," incorporating "Itiq" (spending money wisely) behavior to children, "second," incorporating "Genem" (persevering in financial management and making financial plans), "third," incorporating "Penunah" (appreciating the resources owned) to children, "fourth," incorporating "Semaik-maik" (frugality/not using resources excessively, money in particular) to children, and "fifth," incorporating "Saling peliwat" (mutual assistance) to children. Various financial literacy education models are implemented by parents of the Sasak tribe with not only one strategy but mixed, such as role modeling, habituation, having dinner together, discussions, direct and indirect advice through Sasak's proverbs.
