Rating:
This book is good for a variety of reasons, some things are no-brainers but then I understand there are lots of people out there trying to figure the value of money. So to those people...hang in there, being financially free can happen, it just takes some work.
great advice
Rating:
This book has wonderful ideas to help parents understand why teenagers don't know how to manage their money as well as the ideas and worksheets to help correct the problem. The earlier you begin the longer you have to teach the necessary lessons.
Very Practical Advice
Rating:
The advice is very well put, and definitely will save you money, more than what the book sells for. I was in particular looking for advice for my son to get his first car. The advice was good and made sense, so as the rest of the book.
short read with good ideas
Rating:
This book has all the worksheets you can think of and some great ideas for your child(ren). Now I'm much more prepared and excited about teaching my little boy how to be responsible with money. He gives some fun and easy ways to teach children as well as adults how to handle money to your benefit.
