From youth accounts to free education for teens, we’ve provided recommendations to help teach money management at any age. SLFCU suggests setting a savings goal of $1,000 by age 18. As a young adult, your child will need to establish credit, and $500 can secure a guaranteed loan, with no credit history needed. It’s also a great way to start building emergency savings. Broken into small, regular deposits, this goal is easily achievable. Saving just $10 a month starting at age 5 adds up to $1,000 well before age 18 – and that doesn’t even include the dividends paid on the account. Open the age ranges below for SLFCU products and services that can help your child build a bright financial future.
