Journeys with Max: Life Skills for Young People-Understanding Money

by Alan Powdermaker, Tashie Nevarez (Illustrator)

Overview

Over 60% of Americans have no financial reserves, no emergency funds and inadequate retirement goals. We have failed to teach our young people even the very basics of money management.

Journeys with Max takes a young man and his family to new levels of financial literacy through practical and realistic exercises using inner-active educational techniques that every family can utilize with ease and transparency. The lessons that Max learns are designed to be fun and challenging, but also the basis for a lifetime of financial rewards.
