Managing Your Personal Finances

While focusing on the student's role as a citizen, student, family member, consumer, and active participant in the business world, MANAGING YOUR PERSONAL FINANCES informs students of their various financial responsibilities, and provides opportunities for self-awareness, expression, and satisfaction in a highly technical and competitive society. Students discover new ways to maximize their earning potential, develop strategies for managing their resources, explore skills for the wise use of credit, and gain insight into the different ways of investing money. Written specifically for high school students, special sections in each chapter hold student interest by focusing on current trends and issues consumers face in the marketplace.
