How To $pend the Rest of Your Life - Now That You're On Your Own

Audience:
· Adolescents age 16-20
· Parents, educators, and advisors who live and work with young adults.

How to $pend the Rest of Your Life provides young adults with an understanding of the financial issues and responsibilities they will face once they live home for college or a life on their own. Through "live" interviews with actual young adults, the program examines the benefits of saving, credit, and budgeting and the consequences of overspending. Through active example, the program helps young adults become informed financial consumers and encourages children and their parents to openly discuss financial realities and choices.
