One study even found kid’s money habits are formed at the young age of seven years old.

Panola College is holding a money management camp for kids. The camp is divided into two age groups which are 6-12 and 13-17.

Camp teachers tell us the younger class will learn about different kinds of currencies, savings, needs vs wants and other money strategies.

The older class of 13-17 year olds will learn advance skills in money management such as stock investing and government bonds.
