Investing for Young Adults: How to Earn, Save, Invest, Grow Your Money and Retire Early! Paperback – October 30, 2022

Author Kris Pearson provides one of the most straightforward, easily accessible, knowledgeable guides about investing to date, and while it is certainly helpful to the intended audience of Young Adults, the information is applicable to us al! A hint of the presentation style follows: ‘Investment refers to dedicating some of your money in a way that, with luck and some skill, will allow it to grow over time. There are many types of investments that people make. They invest in stock or bonds that they hope will pay dividends…residual income …’With that facile writing style, this book discuses accounts (checking and savings), learning to budget (spend, save, invest), short term investments, stocks and alternate markets, real estate, some easy ways to earn (renting space in your home, selling stock photos, etc), how to calculate return on investment (ROI), a fine discussion of credit building and managing, and an easy to understand discussion of IRAs, 401(K) and compound interest accounts. After the instruction section, the author offers advice on utilizing the items discussed. This book is an “if only” book we all could have used as teenagers – and a very reliable manual for teens and young adults to learn early on! ‘The world is your oyster – start growing your pearl!’ Very highly recommended.

This was a gift for a 19yr old young man who said that it was an easy read with good lessons

Book arrived as described

The product was selected for my grandson who is 13 years old, it was delivered to me, I read it first to determine if it was appropriate for him.I believe it is exactly appropriate because it introduces the reader to financial products, stresses work to earn money, saving a portion, and investing the savings so that if continued eventually the money saved will work for you instead of you working for it.I mailed it to him he confirmed receipt JVM

I bought this for a Christmas present for my grandson

I especially wanted them to know about compound interest.

Bought as a gift

Would be ok if based on UK finance, but it is American. So won't be gifting this to grandchild
