What About Helping ‘Tweens’ Too?

Scott,

Last night I was reading your book and my 11-year-old son asked me about it. I was reading the chapter about credit cards, so I explained the dangers of them to him. Would you consider revising your book and targeting ‘tweens’ like my son? He is faced with so much more ‘negative temptation’ than I ever was. He talks about an online shopping site called Wish, and he also talks about gambling because of those horrible Lottoland and Sportsbet ads. I think your advice and guidance would help reinforce some good financial messages for kids.

Hi Nikki,

As luck would have it, I’m currently writing a new book ‒ The Barefoot Investor for Families: The Only Kids’ Money Guide You’ll Ever Need ‒ that helps parents to raise financially fit kids of all ages, including tweens. While my last book focused on doing ‘Barefoot Date Nights’, this one focuses on the entire family having ‘Barefoot Money Meals’.

It’s due for release in September. (Calm down, Bill. I told you not to read this!)

Thank-you for reading,

Scott
