Great Idea #22: Kidz Dollarz

Like Kidz Bodz, but for financial education.

How many young people get their first credit card, max it out and then wonder why they can't afford anything?

How many people of all ages amass huge amounts of money in a Savings Maximiser account earning 6% when they could be earning up to 20% if they invested in shares, managed funds or property?

Plenty of people.

If only kids could learn some basic financial literacy at school, so that they would know how to manage their money once they start to earn some.

Kidz Bodz helps reduce the growing obesity problem, Kidz Dollarz would help reduce the growing debt problem.

Hey there
I saw a mag called "Ideas" on the show "Not Quite Art" last night - run by a girl in Melbourne (I think) - people send her ideas - she prints them in her mag - and other people can buy them from you ... now that is a cool idea! Maybe you should send some of your ideas to her.
