Money Skills for Teens

Excellent book to explain finances to anyone - not just a teenager

This is a Christmas present so I haven't I think it will help my teenager wh today admitted he is scared of becoming an adult because he's not sure what he's got to pay out for it's not the same as being a child and most things are fine so I really hope this book will put his mind at rest some can enjoy the first tricky stages to becoming an adult.

I picked up Money Skills for Teens for my teenager, hoping to give them a solid foundation in real-world money management—and overall, it's a great starting point. Pros: Clear and easy to understand: The book breaks down financial concepts like budgeting, saving, credit, and taxes in a way that’s super accessible for teens. Relevant examples: Uses real-life situations teens can relate to, like earning from part-time jobs, spending wisely, and saving for big goals. Encourages smart habits: Emphasizes the importance of saving early, understanding needs vs. wants, and being mindful with money. Good conversation starter: Helped open up some great talks at home about money, responsibility, and planning for the future. Cons: Basic overview: It’s more of a broad introduction than an in-depth guide. Great for beginners, but older teens or financially-savvy readers might find it too simple. Could use more visuals: Charts, diagrams, or budgeting templates would’ve made it even more engaging. Overall, this is a solid, no-nonsense guide for teens who are just starting to learn about personal finance. Great gift for a high schooler or anyone new to money management.

Bought for my 15 year old niece. I work in financial services and was looking for something that had some investing basics. This fit the bill and she is pleased to have learned about compound interest, the 8th wonder of the world!

Great ! All teens should have a read of this!!

I bought this for my son and I read sometimes with him or he ask questions which made me curious and I have to read too. Very good book. The English composition is appropriate which makes it easy to understand.

An easy to read book but be aware it is US-based so refers to “checking account” and examples are in USD. Some references are also US specific (taxation and Medicare). Having said that, the concepts are generic and explained clearly.

Great book for teens just starting their journey of independence. Bought for my daughter who is keen to use her part time job’s money wisely to save for the future.

This comprehensive guide with a workbook built inside, is about money skills that every teen needs to push them forward into life.
