Budgeting Book for teenagers

Options
Do any of you lovely people know of a budgeting workbook suitable for a 14 year old boy please? The ones I've found have either been American, out of print or very expensive.

Thanks

    Have you tried Alvin Hall? He writes simply, I came across the first book in the local library and spent an enjoyable 30mins reading it cover to cover - well worth the investment in time. Give it to a teenager and it will set their spending habits for life.

    Or this, from "Show Me The Money":

    If however its a book that allows budget entries to be made, why not just use excel?

  • Thanks everyone. Yes it is to teach budgeting and money saving skills. It's for my nephew so the excel sheet is not possible unfortunatley.

    VFM4meplease I'm sorry but nothing is showing where the little icons are. Is there supposed to be a picture or a link?
