Most teens start earning money before anyone teaches them what to do with it.

Money Skills for Teens gives young people a simple, practical system for handling the money they earn—without complicated budgets, financial jargon, or lectures.

At the center of the book is The First $1,000 Money Plan™, a step-by-step system that teaches teens how to:

• EARN their first money and build repeatable ways to make more

• KEEP more of what they earn instead of wondering where it went

• DIVIDE their money so every dollar has a purpose

• SAVE toward a first $500 safety net

• GROW money by understanding the basics of long-term investing

• PROTECT themselves from scams, impulse spending, subscriptions, and costly money traps

• REPEAT the system as their income and goals grow

Teens also learn how to make smarter spending decisions, understand the basics of credit, cars, and education costs, and use a practical 30-day challenge to put the system into action.

Written specifically for teens ages 14–18, this isn't a textbook about money. It's a practical guide designed to help young people move from “I have money, but I don't know what to do with it” to:

“This is my money. I earned it. I know what I'm doing with it.”

Whether a teen has $20, $200, or is working toward their first $1,000, this book gives them a system they can start using with their very next dollar.
