Dear Reader:
When you were little, you didn’t have to think about
money. Your parents took care of that. But now you
have some money of your own, and you’re making
more of your own decisions about what to do with it.
If you’re like most girls, some of those decisions have
been smart and some haven’t. You know that being
“money smart” feels better.
In fact, being money smart can feel great. How come?
Money’s a tool. People use it to get the things that
they want the most in life—freedom, opportunity,
comfort, good health, safety, and pleasure. They also
use it to avoid the things they want least—things like
poverty, fear, stress, and hunger. Having money won’t
make you happy, but knowing how to use it wisely
can help you build a future that will.
This book is packed with tips on how to make, save,
and spend money. It includes lots of quizzes, advice
from girls like you, and a list of over a hundred
different moneymaking ideas. You’ll even find
business cards and other printable items to use on
the job at a special Smart Girl’s Guide: Money link
Put it all together and you’ll be amazed at how much
easier it is to get what you want from your money.
You have big dreams about what you can do and
accomplish in this world, and we hope this book
does a thing or two to help you achieve them.
Your friends at American Girl
