  • Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill, NC (1888PressRelease) January 19, 2011 - Teaching teenagers money management skills and helping parents guide their children towards responsible financial management is the goal of a new educational workshop in Raleigh, N. C.

    The free 2 hour evening workshop is for both parents and teenagers how to manage income and expenses.

    The class is scheduled for Thursday, February 24th at 7:00pm Team Nimbus Center on 3801 Computer Dr. Suite 101, Raleigh, NC 27609. The interactive class will be taught by Thomas Vass, an economist and professional money manager, and Laura Rose, a project management professional and business coach.

    "Part of our class is designed to bridge different perspectives that teens and parents have about money," said Laura Rose. "We know that teens are starting to make their own money and may also receive an allowance. They generally believe that they can spend their money as they please."

    "We also know that parents want their children to be independent and prosperous, and know that wise money management skills are essential," added Thomas Vass. "However parents sometimes lack the educational tools and resources to teach their children money management skills."

    The seminar topics are built around 4 concepts:
    o T - Technology of Teen Money Management
    o E - Expectations For Teen Money Management
    o E - Execution of the Teen Money Management Game Plan
    o N - Nuances of Communication Between Parents and Teens

    The class addresses the different perspectives of teens and their parents in these four topics.

    "We hope to use this workshop as a testing ground for an expanded online series of courses for parents and teens," said Rose.

    The class is free but requires pre-registration for the first 75 attendees. http://teenmoneymanagement.eventbrite.com/
