June 19, 2011 - PRLog -- Help your kids to understand budgeting and how money works early in life for carefree money management.

Managing money is a necessary and unavoidable part of life and this book shows a simple, yet highly informative process to manage your finances throughout your life.

The authors set out to help their grandchildren become financially literate with a step-by-step guide on how to budget, save and invest so that they could develop a good understanding of financial matters from the start.

'How Many Minutes Make a Dollar?' Tackles the subject of learning to be a good money manager by thinking in terms of ‘how much time’ you will need to spend at work in order to earn the money to pay for the things you want to buy.

Excerpt:
         Managing - Save 680 hours at work.

         “Plan ahead, save and invest, and then pay cash - you'll need to spend 474 hours at work to pay for the car.”

         “If you don't plan ahead, if you wait until the need for a car develops and then sign up for finance - you'll need to spend 1,154 hours at work to pay for the car.”

         “The difference is 680 hours (equal to seventeen 40 hour weeks at work) that can be funded by dividends, capital gains, franking credits and interest.”

John and Barbara Evans are comfortably retired due to following their own advice. They lived at Oxenford in the northern corridor between the Gold Coast and Brisbane, Queensland.
