I thought I got an early start when I purchased my first shares at age 17, but 13 is incredible. I bet you're light-years ahead of your peers thanks to that head-start. I'm still in college so I obviously don't have any teenagers of my own, but I do have a 15 year old sister who drives me nuts with her mindset towards money. I do my best to break her sense of entitlement and consuming based entirely on wants, but largely to no avail. I'm afraid she's going to have a tough, tough wake-up call. @ Chiko- that’s pretty darn impressive. I thought I got an early start when I purchased my first shares at age 17, but 13 is incredible.

I have to say it seems true in my case - I'm as much of a gadget fiend as my mother is! That’s really interesting, how much teens are influenced by the spending their parents do.
