The Money Starter Pack – World Edition (Book 1) — Coming Soon

🌍 Not yet available. The Canadian Edition is on sale now — get in touch to be told when the World Edition ships.

Build a money mindset that lasts a lifetime — starting at age 12.

Most students leave school knowing the quadratic formula but not how a paycheque works, what compound interest does, or why inflation quietly shrinks every unit of currency in their savings. The Money Starter Pack fixes that — written for readers aged 12 and up anywhere in the world, in a game-inspired style built for people who would rather level up than sit through a lecture.

This is Book 1 of The Money Skill Tree — the beginner volume. It teaches the fundamentals through the metaphor of a Life Battery that charges with effort and drains with every choice. Because the fundamentals don't change at a border, this volume needs no local tax code to be useful.

What's inside — 10 chapters

• The Power in Your Pocket — understanding money as stored energy
• The Software Update — from barter to digital, and how money evolved
• The Filter — needs versus wants, and how to tell the difference
• The Generator — income, side hustles, and earning your first money
• The Charging Station — banks, accounts, and where to store your money
• The Two Rooms — chequing versus savings, and the two-room money system
• The Multiplier Effect — compound interest and the power of starting early
• The Invisible Shrink — inflation, and why money loses value over time
• The Flight Path — budgeting with the 50/30/20 rule
• The Energy Thieves — debt, traps, and protecting what you've built

Every chapter follows the same six-part structure

• The Level Up — a story that opens the concept
• The Money Skill Tree — the core lesson
• The Skill Quest — a hands-on, fill-in-the-pages exercise
• Balancing Your Skills — the trade-off, made visible
• Guild Chat — questions to take to a parent, mentor, or older sibling
• Elite Quest — a real-world mission off the page

Who it's for

• Readers aged 12 and up, anywhere, working through it alone or with a parent
• Families outside Canada and the US, or between countries
• International schools, homeschool curriculum, or after-school enrichment
• An allowance, chore, or birthday gift for a teenager
