The Money Side of Living: Starting Out With Money

The money stuff we wish we were taught at school.

Young people are expected to make some pretty big money decisions surprisingly early.

Their first job. Their first payslip. Tax. Super. Bank accounts. Saving. Budgeting. Scams. And suddenly having money of their own to manage.

The Money Side of Living: Starting Out with Money gives young people a practical introduction to the money skills they’ll actually use in everyday life.

Written in straightforward, easy-to-understand language, it helps take the mystery out of money and gives young people a better starting point for making their own financial decisions.

Because the first lesson about money shouldn’t have to come from an expensive mistake.
