Top 10 Secrets for Spending Your Money Wisely (A Student's Guide to Financial Empowerment) - Softcover
Teens are big consumers, spending more than $200 billion yearly in the United States alone. But many have scant knowledge and skills for spending money responsibly now and in the future. With the ten secrets for wise spending revealed in this book, readers gain the tools to both afford their expenses and save more cash. In addition to budgeting, teens learn to shop smart, accurately judging affordability, discerning needs vs. wants, identifying value, and calculating the true cost of an item. Fascinating financial facts, questions for an expert, common myths, and a helpful glossary all contribute toward helping make readers financially literate.

From School Library Journal:
Gr 7-10-This series is aimed at helping teens learn how to manage their money. Unfortunately, the texts are not engaging and are, at times, repetitive across the six books. The staged photos add little to the information. Each book has an introduction, followed by 10 chapters, one for each of the "Top 10 Secrets" being discussed. The advice can be condescending and the points are obvious for the intended age group. For example, every volume has a page of questions to ask an expert or mentor. In Spending, one of the questions is "Can fewer expenses and more income help me reach my money goals?" The titles contain lists of places readers can go to for more information (complete with address, website, and brief descriptions), additional reading, and an extensive bibliography. Despite flaws, these books provide basic information. α(c) Copyright 2013. Library Journal. LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
