Questions
Good to know
Teens aged 11–15 mainly — but anyone who never got taught the money basics will get plenty from it. No maths beyond adding and percentages, and every example is a real-life one.
No — it's education, not advice. We explain how money and investing work using real examples so you can understand the news and make sense of it. We never tell you what to buy.
Every lesson is included in Pro. Lesson 1 is free so you (or your child) can try the interactive style first.
