Hey kid, it’s time to become a teenvestor!

If you are a parent who is looking for information about how to get your child interested in investing and entrepreneurship, then I have found a great website for you, Teenvestor.com (www.teenvestor.com) — the most comprehensive website for young investors.

About Teenvestor

The goals of this website are to:

  • Teach young people how to become life-long investors;
  • Expose teens to entrepreneurship;
  • Help parents encourage their children to become investors and entrepreneurs;
  • Help teachers expose their students to basic economic and business concepts.

Emmanuel Modu and Andrea Walker, the creators of this site, are the authors of three books about Teenvestors:
