Teens and Money

I asked several Pioneer Valley students how they manage and save their money. If they save it, what for? These were their responses…


Nick Conn, Fun Fact: was a boy scout, Class of 2020. “I’m pretty careless with money. I only save for college and I haven’t dipped into that savings since I opened it.”

Miguel Casas, Fun fact: Pretty okay at SMASH, Class of 2021. “I’m pretty good with money but currently I have none because I bought some items to treat myself. Something I’m saving up for is a PC, and I’ve saved 500$ on it.”

Eric Reyes, Fun Fact: can make a beat out of thin air, Class of 2020. ” I’m not good with money and I have nothing saved.”

Manuel Vasquez, Fun Fact: loves watching Anime, Class of 2020. ” No, I’m not good with money, I haven’t saved up for anything and I don’t have a job.”
