Written by Claire Donnelly

Narrated by Ethan Maxwell

Does the thought of your teenager navigating college loans, credit cards, and the rising cost of living make you uneasy? You know the high school years are a critical window—but where do you even begin teaching real money skills?

The Financially Fluent Teen is your clear, reassuring, step-by-step guide to raising financially confident teens in a complex, digital world. This is not a textbook and not a lecture—it’s a practical playbook designed specifically for parents of teens aged 13–19.

You don’t need to be a financial expert. You just need the right framework.

This book shows you how to move beyond allowance and vague advice and instead teach your teen how money actually works—earning it, managing it, saving it, growing it, and protecting it.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

• Start money conversations naturally—without awkwardness or resistance

• Teach budgeting frameworks teens can actually follow

• Build strong saving habits using the “Pay Yourself First” principle

• Explain compound interest and investing in simple, age-appropriate ways

• Help teens understand credit, debt, and financial responsibility

• Protect them from scams, digital fraud, and online financial risks

• Prepare them for independence, college life, and early adulthood

Each chapter includes practical examples, conversation scripts, and real-world scenarios you can apply immediately—no theory overload, no judgment, no fear tactics.

The goal isn’t perfection.

The goal is confidence, capability, and long-term financial resilience.

The window to build these habits is open right now.

This book helps you make the most of it.
