By seeing all the fat stacks that mommy or daddy is bringing home?

  Ew, on several orthogonal levels.

    Could you expand on your reaction a bit? Seems like encouraging children to follow an interest that could lead them to wealth through work isn't a bad thing?

      You're encouraging a money-grubbing attitude, which is not really a healthy one to have for long-term happiness. Furthermore, if they only see it as a path to money and not an end in itself to construct great, helpful, beautiful programs, they're gonna burn out real quick. Also, "having money" as a goal is just somehow repulsive. Seemingly all the sleazeballs of the world are oriented like this, and as a result they tend to be very shady and use people as means to getting money rather than actually people, with whom meaningful relationships can be forged.
