Money Advice For Teens: Interview with Eva From Teens Got Cents RPF0127

Today, I bring you an interview with a dynamo: Eva from TeensGotCents.com. I met Eva in New Orleans at the FinCon conference. She was attending with her mother and I was incredibly impressed with her. Eva writes about about personal finance for a teen audience. She began at the age of 15 and she shares her own journey and also gives advice for other young people. In the interview, we weave two themes: Eva's advice for teens Eva's own experience/example as a financial blogger Both of these themes are valuable. Frankly, I'm a bit jealous of Eva's early start in writing about the topics of personal finance. I wish I'd had the foresight to begin at her age. Listen carefully to the story of her site and consider how you can help your children--or yourself--to start something similar. It's a really neat story. Other topics include: Budgeting basics for teens The envelope system The value of attending professional conferences--especially for young people How to teach teens to get jobs Enjoy!
