Smart start for teens

Great mix of lessons and fun activities. It made saving and budgeting less intimidating for my teen. A real confidence booster in money management.

So much great financial info

I know this audiobook is supposed to be for teens, but as a parent I also found the information extremely valuable. There is so much practical and useful information to help young people build real-world money skills from early on. From budgeting and saving to managing bank accounts, avoiding debt, and protecting against fraud, it covers the essentials every teen (and adult) should know.

Practical, Clear, and Teen-Friendly

This audiobook takes financial topics that usually feel overwhelming and breaks them down into steps teens can actually use. From setting up a budget to understanding credit, it explains the basics in a way that sticks. What I liked most is how it gives real-world examples—things like saving for a first car or managing allowance money—that make the lessons feel immediately useful. It’s not just theory; it’s a guide that helps build habits for long-term success. A great tool for any teen (or even adults who need a refresher).

Money Explained for Teens (And anyone!)

I picked this up with my teenager in mind, and it turned out to be such a smart choice. The book explains money in a way that’s easy to follow without being dull or preachy. I like that it covers the basics—budgeting, saving, and even credit—while keeping it real with examples teens can actually relate to. The activities and step-by-step parts make it feel doable instead of overwhelming. It’s the kind of guide I wish I had when I was younger, and I’m glad my teen has it now.

The Playbook I Wish I'd Had!

This audiobook has been a game-changer for my family. It has taught my teens about budgeting rather than me having to give the dreaded lecture.
The relatable examples and step-by-step lessons on everything from managing a first bank account to avoiding debt traps finally made the concepts click. It’s not a dry textbook; it’s a guide that gave my teens genuine confidence.
Hearing them talk smartly about saving and interest was a proud parent moment.
This is the essential financial foundation I wanted them to have before leaving the nest.
Highly recommend.

Financial Skills Not Taught in School

This book is full of financial skills that are no longer taught in our school from managing a checking/savings account to creating budgets and saving money. It covers it all including fraud and identity theft in this crazy digital world that we live in today. These habits will last a lifetime if implemented.

Money Wise

Listening to Financial Literacy for Teens gave me practical tips to save, budget, and manage money wisely. I felt more confident making financial decisions and planning for a secure future.

Smart Money Starts Early

I found this audiobook straightforward and easy to follow. It breaks down financial basics in a way that doesn’t feel overwhelming. The examples were clear, and I liked how it spoke directly to challenges young people face with money. I didn’t feel like it was talking down to me, which made it easier to stay engaged. It gave me a few simple steps I can actually apply now, instead of just a lot of theory. A solid listen for anyone starting out.

Amazing!

I really wish I had these tips when I was in my teens but thankfully, it’s never too late to learn! This audiobook has genuinely helped me get more organized, balance my priorities, and feel more confident about handling adult responsibilities. It doesn’t just teach life skills; it motivates you to actually apply them and see the change.

The narrator’s calm yet inspiring voice made the whole experience even better, like having a supportive friend guiding you through each step toward a more confident, capable version of yourself.

Money Made Simple

I really liked how easy this audiobook made money stuff feel. It breaks down saving, budgeting, and even credit in a way that actually makes sense for teens, without sounding boring or complicated. The examples are super relatable, and it gives you tips you can actually use right away. Feels like a guide that sets you up for good habits early on.
