Creating Cash

For a long time I've wanted to start a group for teens dedicated to learning how to make money, invest money, and save money. It's time to "just do it." Meet up in the Teen Room on Thursday, May 22 at 3:30pm if you want money! Set yourself up to meet or exceed short-term and long-term financial goals. We'll all learn together. Finally, please comment and let us know if you are interested. We can get some advisors and learn together. Make Money! Snacks will be served.
