Teen Financial Literacy is more than a buzzword; it’s the foundational skill that helps teenagers navigate money with confidence in a rapidly changing world, where digital wallets, mobile payments, and constant exposure to price comparisons shape everyday choices, and where a thoughtful approach to money can prevent costly mistakes before they even start, guiding them toward responsible experimentation with money under supervision and feedback from trusted adults.In today’s economy, young people encounter financial decisions earlier than ever, from receiving allowances and earning through small jobs to understanding the basics of credit and budgeting, and guiding these moments with clear principles such as teen budgeting, which turns curiosity into competence and helps teens connect learning to real-life outcomes.
