Grow Your Dough. Smart Money Tips for Teens (en Inglés) - Jason D Kirk CFP®

Money is a powerful tool-it can open doors, create opportunities, and help you achieve your dreams. But managing money wisely is a skill that is best learned early on in order to build smart financial habits for life. Grow Your Dough helps empower teens with financial literacy that can help them now and into the future. The book uses fun and interesting situations to explain the fundamentals of money, what it means to budget, how to save and grow your money, being smart about shopping and spending, investing, credit and debt, financial planning

By using examples of teens working after school jobs, making decisions on spending for what they need versus what they want, or saving up for a goal, the situations and characters in the book are relatable to young readers. The book is realistic in showing that saving and growing your money doesn't mean you have to miss out on buying fun snacks or going to a concert or buying a bike. Being financially literate helps kids to make smart decisions that allows them to both save and have fun while also building for their future.

Half of US adults are not financially literate, according to the World Economic Forum, sharing that it deeply affects where we live, careers, educations, our family, quality of life, even our health. The response to this is to educate our children early on about what it means to be financially literate in theory and in practice so that it becomes a part of their daily lives. With his new book, Grow Your Dough: Smart Money Tips for Teens, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional Jason Kirk makes learning about money fun and accessible for kids.
