Summary

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

The Motley Fool Investment Guide for Teens helps teens stand out from a ho-hum mutual-fund crowd, build a portfolio of stocks one 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.
