Would this book be appropriate to teach to high school seniors?

I might not have listened as closely as I ought to have but something might have stuck - I hate that we are just expected to know this once you hit 23 y/o or whenever you graduate school.

My only comment would be that this book is very British economy focused, it talks about "ISAs" which is a British government scheme to help young people buy their first house (https://www.gov.uk/individual-savings...) and a scheme which closed November 2019 as the writer acknowledges. It might be worth skimming the book to see if it's applicable to how the American system works but otherwise you would only be teaching students how to manage money if they lived in the United Kingdom! :-)

However if there's an American alternative to this book I think it would be great to teach to high school seniors, before they go out in to the world.(less)
