A Look at Money Matters

Understanding money—how to make it, how to save it, and how to spend it wisely—is essential. Unfortunately, money concepts are often not explained, or not explained well, to young people. This invaluable set breaks down seemingly complex topics of finance into easy-to-understand concepts. Familiar but perhaps daunting terms such as budgets, stocks, and debt—so often used in the news—will become clear to readers through the accessible explanations in these volumes. Real-world photographs and well-crafted graphic organizers aid readers in understanding these important ideas as well.
