This 2nd edition updates changes in online banking, smartphone
apps, credit cards, and student loans but retains basic financial
information that ensures students won’t learn about money the
hard way. A chapter for parents has been added so they can help
their students become financially knowledgeable, and it includes
advice for parents about making decisions related to college
costs. In addition, a chapter for grandparents contains
suggestions on how to help college-bound
grandchildren—financially and in other ways—without endangering
their own financial security. A basic investments chapter is
included for first-time investors.
