From the personal-finance duo Fortune magazine called "funny, smart, cynical, and] opinionated" comes savvy financial advice for today's street-smart young investors.

The Motley Fool has made investing fun and easy for millions of people. Now, it custom designs its wit and wisdom for today's money-savvy teens. The Motley Fool Investment Guide for Teens helps teens stand out from the ho-hum mutual-fund crowd, build a portfolio of stocks they can actually care about, and take advantage of the investor's best friend--time--to watch their profits multiply.

Strike a blow for financial independence. The Fool shows you how to:

- Question authority when it comes to managing your money
- Save cash (for investing, for college...and, yes, even for having fun )
- Dodge the spending and saving pitfalls that trap so many adults
- Get started investing--online and off--with just a few dollars
- Discover up-and-coming businesses that could become future blue chips

Warning: this is not your parents' money guide From identifying companies that are both cool and profitable to building a portfolio that makes tracking investments exciting, The Motley Fool Investment Guide for Teens shows young investors the way to financial freedom.
