Schools worldwide lack a formal financial literacy course, instead focusing on teaching students arbitrary skills that may or may not be relevant to their daily lives. As a result, we have financially illiterate young adults who can solve quadratic equations and remember the structure of a plant, but have no idea about the loans they take out or how taxes work. This audiobook aims to fill a gap in the education system by introducing teenagers and college students to relevant financial concepts to broaden their functional understanding and help them make informed decisions.

With powerful examples from Scripture and stories from teens today and through the centuries, Sara Barratt equips teens to live with a biblical worldview, approach today's hot-button issues with godly wisdom, and influence their generation for the glory of God.
