Description
A clear and unpatronising guide to money for teenagers. Jonathan Self's user-friendly guide demystifies every aspect of money and money management, covering such critical topics as bank accounts, living on a budget, the dangers of credit cards, and how to cope with money at university. The Teenager's Guide to Money treats what can be the driest and most daunting of topics with the lightest and easiest of touches. Rich in information and advice, but also accessible, easy to follow and entertaining to read, this is a book that parents should ensure finds its way into the hands of every teenager. In fact, so clear and coherent is the counsel it offers, that it wouldn't be a bad idea if the book was read by parents themselves, just in case they've forgotten its core message that having enough money has very little to do with how much money you earn, and a great deal to do with how well you manage it.

Very Informative!
Bought this book for my 15 year old grandson. Was very impressed as it covers just about everything to teach good budgeting skills from having a Saturday job to understanding the stock market and everything else in between. That includes reading a wage slip, debit and credit cards, loans, insurance, paying for university, buying a house and much, much more.Have just bought a 2nd copy of this book to give to another family member as it's so useful!

Great but dated
I read through this before giving it to my cousin's grandson. I had given copies to 2 other granddaughters a couple of years ago who were very pleased and found it useful. (Yes, I know ~they would say that. That's why I read it myself this time.) The content is practical, the advice useful and the book is readable. My only reservation is that it's now several years old and bits are a little dated. I'd like to give another youngster an updated edition or something similar but haven't found anything.By the way, it's impossible to find this in any High St booksellers ~ they say it's out of print.

What every teen needs to know - but won't hear from their parents!
This book is a clear, concise and enjoyable introduction to the confusing world of money management for teenagers. It explodes common myths about money and helps teens learn how to take control of the income they have and get the most out of it. It's an indispensable book that no teen should be without. It can also give worried parents the peace of mind that all the advice they give about money (and which their offspring ignore) is available in a form that teenagers can relate to.

great condition, great price and spot on book for teenagers
Some parts of the book is slightly dated now, but gives a great introduction to teenagers about the importance of money in our lives. And gives a clear strategy on how to manage money for the long term.

The Teenagers guide to Money sucks
I ordered this, "Teenagers guide to Money," with the impression that it would teach my Teenagers how to handle American money. The Book has nothing to do with American Money. It's all about British Pounds. I don;t know a thing about the British Monetary system and have no desire know. I am certainly not going to give the Book to any of them. They are confused as it with the present system.I honestly feel like i've been ripped off. I have been very satisfied with all my previous dealings with Amazon until this fiasco.
