E-Book: What Every High Schooler Should Know About Credit and Finance
Why did we publish What Every High Schooler Should Know about Credit and Finance? Because, the reality is that many subjects covered in this book are simply not taught to young people. Many people, don’t know the important and, in some cases, hidden and nearly secret information about the way financial things really work in American society.
As many parents already know from their own experience, not knowing this important information will result in a lot of financial and credit trouble for their soon graduating high schooler. Even college students don't learn this vital information, except perhaps after they get out of school and have possibly already damaged their credit.
Consider John, he took advantage of nearly every credit card offer that came along and later in life deeply regretted it. "But it was so easy" John said, "The credit card offers just kept coming while I was in college and I enjoyed going out for pizza to fellowship with my friends." At 18% interest, that pizza now causes a lot of indigestion.
A little pizza went a long way toward preventing his pursuit of a Master's Degree, "Well, I had to take the first job that came along to keep up with my swelling credit card payments, so a Master's Degree had to be put off for a later time".
Dr. Jarrod Williamson, the author, has an amazing story about credit tragedy and triumph. While he doesn't focus on that story in his book, he did use his personal experience to help ensure he included the lion's share of problem areas for those just ready to start out on their own.
