An invaluable guide introducing young adults to essential money-related concepts and skills

The average US household carries more than $7,000 in credit card debt. Americans pay $35 billion a year in fees for mishandling checks and debit cards. Too many have failed to learn even basic money management.

In The Money Savvy Teen, Robbie Hyman looks to change that. Using an accessible approach, Hyman details how to develop a healthy relationship with money, the mechanics of money, and navigating the social side of money—an important yet often overlooked aspect of financial success. Filled with stories and humor, this book features simple, easy-to-remember lessons, from how to resist advertisers’ psychological tricks, to understanding the fees of using another bank’s ATM, to developing a standard phrase that can help anyone out of a tense moment when a friend asks to borrow money.

Armed with these simple lessons, money savvy teens will have the tools and confidence to build smart, responsible financial habits that will last a lifetime.

Reviews for The Money Savvy Teen: Building Smart Financial Habits That Will Last a Lifetime

This is the kind of book I wish I’d had as a teenager—and one I’ll be giving my own kids when the time comes. Robbie Hyman brings humor, real stories, and research together to make smart money habits feel doable, meaningful, and fun. -- Hal Hershfield, professor of marketing and psychology, UCLA, and author of Your Future Self This book goes beyond the superficial discussion of smart money management and gives readers a real look into some of the psychological and social forces driving our dumbest financial moves. But what really surprised me here is that Robbie has managed to do something I didn’t think was possible: he’s made personal finance fun. Among its other great qualities, this book is a blast to read. -- Jim Armstrong, managing director, Composite Ventures, and Forbes Midas List venture investor While the title is The Money Savvy Teen, anyone and everyone can use this practical advice to move toward healthier management of their money and, ultimately, financial independence. But learning to implement these recommendations early in life can give teens a real jumpstart on financial success and peace of mind. -- Emil Peters, CEO, Tunstall Group
