"TV’s Deborah Meaden brings the world of money and personal finance to life in this accessible, concise and engaging read."
July 2024 Book of the Month
If money truly makes the world go around, then we have a responsibility to best equip young people to successfully navigate the financial world, and that is exactly what Deborah Meaden latest book does. This is an excellent introduction for those wishing to better understand and improve their personal finances. A broad range of topics are introduced and explained, including different ways of borrowing money, how pensions work, and exactly what cryptocurrencies are. From how to budget, first jobs and reading your payslip – Meaden is a friendly and knowledgeable guiding voice.
A big part of the book’s success comes from making what can be quite dense and detailed subjects accessible and easy to follow. Using lots of headings, questions and attractive formatting, the book perfectly balances the act of explaining whilst avoiding ever feeling condescending. Quizzes and small activities feature frequently, these are a fun way of making the reader consider and critique their own financial situation. The “Do I Need IT Or Do I Want IT?” quiz has had a big impact on my own shopping habits! Short interviews from entrepreneurs and other financial experts further enhance the book, giving a depth and real- world relevance to each section.
An excellent example of non-fiction that all teens (and many adults) will benefit from reading.
