Tip Tuesday
Summer is a great time to help teens focus on a critical skill: money management.

Try these tips to help your teens become a good money manager: 
  • Help them create a budget and live within it. 
  • Encourage them to save money. If they have a summer job, they should save some of what they earn. 
  • Help them open a checking account and use an ATM card responsibly. Each month, they can balance their account and see where their money is going. 
  • Discuss your family spending habits and saving goals.
