Teen Millionaire Clubs

Even experienced investors find it helpful to have a support group to answer questions and to open networking opportunities. Here is an idea for potential millionaires in high school and college to create a Teen Millionaires’ Club which fosters an environment for mutual support and exchange of ideas as they begin their journey to buy their economic freedom by becoming millionaires.

Mission:

To create a mutually supportive, learning environment in which young adults can learn to achieve their savings and investing goals.

Club’s Initial Resource Requirements:

  1. Club Sponsor: For example, an instructor interested in helping teens to learn to be financially independent.

  4. Officers...President, Vice President, Secretary.
  5. Board Members, including Officers and Key Committee Chairperson, such as a Program Committee (for Savings and Investing) and Membership Chairperson.
