I do not know what the title will be yet, but it will be something like:

12 Things I Wish I Had Learned About Money Before I Hit The Real World

It is our passion to help others accomplish far more than they ever thought possible with their personal finances. In I Was Broke. Now I'm Not. (and its related Group Study), I told my story of walking out of financial disarray, and I teach the tools we used to become debt-free. It is mostly focused on providing a CURE for an existing negative financial situation.

In this new resource, we are focusing on PREVENTION of negative financial situations. I know that I went through twenty years of formal education (13 years of K-12, 4 years of undergrad, 3 years of grad) and I had exactly zero classes on personal finances. It is my hope that we can provide a resource that can be utilized in schools and in churches to teach high school students how to manage their financial resources well.

I need your stories! For the next five days, I will be asking a series of questions about what you think teenagers need to know about money before they hit the real world.
