As a parent of a young teenager, I particularly enjoyed this book. I found it to be the perfect length for the subject matter. It was comprehensive and well written. I found the quotes at the beginning of each chapter to be very thoughtful, and the list of questions at the end of each chapter will be very helpful for helping a young adult to think critically about finance.Even adults could learn a thing or two from this book. I would recommend it to any parent.

I was given a free copy of "Personal Finance for Teens Simplified: 7 Easy-to-Learn Strategies for Conquering Debt, Understanding the Value of Money, and Achieving Financial Independence", via LibraryThing. This was an easy-to-read book with lots of common-sense ideas to teaching teenagers all about finances. The author introduces several different approaches to accommodate most households. The book was rigorously researched by the author. Well written and a good guide for parents of teenagers.

Personal Finance for Teens Simplified is a terrific tool to help parents teach their teens about personal finance. Many teens (and their parents) lack the financial literacy skills to make good money choices early on. The book is written for parents yet many teens could read the book for themselves. It breaks down money lingo in simple terms and language. I thought I had good financial knowledge yet even I learned a few things. The book also gives helpful actionable steps and ideas from earning and saving to investing. I especially liked how the author stressed that your teen WILL make mistakes with their finances but he encouraged parents to let their kids learn from those mistakes and model for them what good financial decisions look like.

I recommend this book for every parent of teens, and I plan on going through this with my kids as they become teenagers. I'd love to see a book/workbook geared towards young people based on this book.
