I’m a fan of Mint. Being knowledgeable about financials at an early age can make a huge different in the long term. In the US we don’t do a good job of educating our youth about their finances. This knowledge gap has helped increase the wealth gap. It’s a vicious cycle.
Oh yes it can! Understanding the power of saving and investing compounded over time is a HUGE advantage for young people. I've always thought the taboo about talking about money was something created to keep a lot of people down. That's why I share my net worth updates each quarter.
