These days, many children can use a computer soon after they start walking. They play on sports teams before they're in grade school. So it makes sense to introduce them to something as important as money management when they're young and eager to learn. Our youth accounts give kids great hands-on experience now and also build good financial habits that will last a lifetime.
It's like anything else. The earlier they start, the faster they'll learn.
