How to Invest for Kids

Matt: I was recently listening to an episode with my 12-year-old son and he began to ask a lot of very good questions about investing basics. As a dad, are there some resources out there that would be good for an early teenager to kind of help build his knowledge of the basics and expand on that going forward? Jack: If you want to teach a kid about investing in stocks, you're better off talking about businesses. That's how I usually describe it to adults if someone comes to me and says, I've never bought a stock before. Well, how do you tell? People have asked me what does it mean when you see the numbers on the financial TV?
