The lessons we should be taught at school

No one ever sat down to discuss my finances at any age, how to budget or things not to do to keep you financially afloat! Some people are gifted with money management others not so much. My own experience taught me a lot but the fact I can now offer my daughter this service from as early as the age of 6 to help better understand her own budgeting techniques and how to manage her money has given me more piece of mind. The app itself is a breeze and the fact she can see exactly what she spent and what she has left is great. It’s also nice to see her confidence with money develop and Starling has made this a whole lot easier for not just my daughter but me included. I would highly highly recommend.
