Warning: While the book has 80+ chapters on personal finance and 19 exercises designed to help you budget, invest, buy cars & houses, and/or start a business this week, “Money for Teens” is also infused with Judeo-Christian values. Indeed, Chapter Two is entitled “God and money” because I believe God is more important than money. Otherwise, the book focuses primarily on how to stack up cash and live well.

We must control our money or the triple D’s—debt, deprivation, and desperation—will control us. Read, enjoy, and prosper.
