Financial Preparedness for Students
This is a good book to prepare our teens on how to manage their finances. When growing up I did not have the privilege to know and plan my finances. I made mistakes and learnt through them. This book is therefore preparing our teens to not experience those bad experiences that I did experience. A big thank you to the author for putting efforts to realize this book.

Slay the Tax Dragon! (& other epic financial tips)
Even though I'm quite a few years past college-age, I learned a lot from this book! Some of what I was taught or absorbed about money is apparently based more on common misconceptions or outdated frames of reference rather than current reality of our world, and how finances actually work.
It was refreshing that, instead of giving a one-size-fits-all suggestion, or promoting a certain approach as "the best", the author often mentions a couple different suggestions or strategies, saying that any of them could work for you, and acknowledging that different people and situations need different methods for handling finances.
I appreciated how this book doesn't just give a list of tips and how to implement them, but goes into the reasoning behind the financial advice. This not only gives credibility to all the tips and strategies, but helps the information stick, and will make it easier for teens and college students to absorb and actually apply.
And the illustrations and analogies are very motivating and creative. I mean, who wouldn't love to "Slay the Tax Dragon!" or "Defeat the Villain!" (Don't bother asking - you'll have to listen to the book, because I'm not giving the villain's identity away!) So buy this book for the teens and college students in your life, because, let's face it, they might not have the money to be purchasing many books at this stage of life, and you sure don't want them relying on Google searches or random advice for their finanical decisions.

Not the usual.
Whether you are an adult or a teenager, this audiobook has value for you. More importantly, it will benefit those without solid financial mentors in the younger generation. I love how straightforward it is, plus the superb narration.
Although I have read and listened to many personal finance books, they are repetitive and do not teach you anything new. This book, however, contains many secrets for gaining an edge and gives examples of how to do that, methods not found in general financial literacy.
I will surely be passing this book down to my niece and nephew.

HELPFUL FOR IMPORTANT FINANCIAL DECISIONS!!
I've always tried to start my children off on the right foot financially. With the help of this book, I can begin putting strategies into practise to make sure kids have the appropriate attitude toward money. The best course of action is to teach children how to have a positive connection with money early on.
I'm going to teach them one of the 100 financial lessons each week and spend the entire week reinforcing the significance of each lesson through practical application!
For teenagers and college students who are interested in finding out how to obtain personal financial freedom, this is an excellent resource or beginner's guide. It provides free extras and reveals 101 financial secrets. A very informative listen. nicely written

Awesome book with great information!
I recommend that all teens and young adults get a copy of this book! I wish I had something like this growing up. It would have saved me a lot of costly mistakes. In school, they don't teach you the importance of credit cards, how to use them properly, and how credit can get out of hand quickly. The author makes the subject interesting and easy to understand. The narration is clear and easy to follow. This book has a wealth of knowledge, and it will help any teen or young adult in your life make the right money decisions.

Money Info you need but aren’t taught.
This book was a major step in solving the mystery about money, debt, inflation and financial security. It show me that making more money is not the solution. Money does not guarantee financial literacy nor long-term security. In chapter 6, he explained how I should target paying off my debts and that there are actually good & bad debts.
I found out about the 50-30-20 rule and paying yourself first. The rule of 72 explains why a penny saved is not a penny earner. In the final section. the author’s buy, borrow and die strategy finally made sense to me because of what I had been taught in the first part of the book. This book lays the foundation for handling money and debt and why banks are not your best friend.
