  • Rating short read with good ideas  Aug 21, 2005 (14 of 14 found this helpful)

    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.

  • Rating Very Practical Advice  Oct 10, 2005 (10 of 10 found this helpful)

    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.

  • Rating great advice  Jan 10, 2007 (2 of 2 found this helpful)

    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.

  • Rating a good place to start  May 10, 2007 (1 of 1 found this helpful)

    Broad overview of many of the choices that impact finances. Suggests an allowance plan, recommends matching child's savings (p26). Discusses saving for retirement vs. college (48). Teaches separating income into spending, short term, long term, and giving (54). Includes worksheets for kids of all ages about understanding what things cost, when to get a job, what kind of a car to get, living on your own expenses, and investing. Extensive list of internet resources.

  • Rating Clark smart kids  Mar 8, 2007 

    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.
