According to,
Dr. Lewis Mandell, Professor of Finance & Managerial Economics,
"Personal finance is taught most effectively to high school students
if it is both interactive and relevant."
When talking about financial
responsibility, I use a two-pronged approach that supports:
- Parents
- School administrators
- Teachers
- Youth workers
- Guidance counselors
... and various decision makers
responsible for the financial literacy education and personal
development of teenagers. This approach is both interactive and
relevant while encouraging better communication and understanding
between adults and teens.
The two approaches are:

#2: LIVE PRESENTATIONS - Prepare. Don't
Preach.
This simple yet profound motto is the principle by which all of
my live
presentations are created. I understand that ...
... teens are seeking their own
definitions;
and looking to make decisions about what they will and will not
do;
based on not what they're told, but what they can relate to.
