Description:

The financial world depends heavily on mathematics. Here is a great site to help kids (of all ages) understand economics. If you're a beginner, start at the Beginner section. Here, you can find out about investing, bank accounts, bonds, stocks, and more. If you're more advanced, visit the Intermediate or Advanced sections for information beyond the basics. There's an investing game that you can play, and a goal calculator which helps you to compare different types of investments to achieve a desired goal. A handy glossary explains investment terms.

Review the concepts of investing and learn about different types of investments.
Use the goal calculator to compare how long it will take to reach your goal using up to 5 different investment strategies.
