Description
Book SynopsisMany parents aren’t sure where to begin when it comes to teaching their teens and young adults about finances.
Christian Finance for Teens will help, giving important information in a way teens can understand about job searching, budgeting, debt, banking, investing, insurance, taxes, and other areas of finance.
Author Cindy Kersey has taught a high school finance class (Christian Finance) for tenth- and twelfth-grade students for several years, “road-testing” her material on real-world teens to amazing results. Inspired to help other young people, she turned her course curriculum into book format so teens and young adults everywhere can easily understand concepts of personal finance. This material will be useful as they begin their lives as adults.
