What is inside?

A Smart way to Start

Book 1: A Smart Way To Start teaches children about earning money and equal pay. For all the children’s life goals, there are two things they will need: some money to start and a smart plan indeed. Children learn how money needs to be earned chore by chore, and how there is no reason whatsoever for a girl to be paid less than a boy for the exact same chore, done equally well.

A SMART WAY TO SAVE

Book 2: A Smart Way To Save encourages children to save their pennies and to enjoy math, using addition and multiplication to calculate how much money is in their piggy bank. It goes on to explain how money in a piggy bank cannot grow because it has nowhere to go. In order to grow, the pennies need to be put on a savings account. The book explains in very simple terms that interest is what makes money grow over the years.

It is easy to get carried away and spend all one’s pocket money on things that might not be necessary or that might be poor quality and end up in the bin. Often it is wiser to wait, save a bit more, and purchase something of higher quality that will last. At the end of the story, discover the link to a SECRET CHAPTER on digital money…

It is DIGITAL ONLY.

A SMART CHOICE TO MAKE​

Book 4: A Smart Choice To Make teaches children about sustainability and impact. By spending the pennies they earned and saved, children are giving money to firms/brands who make the things they buy. Some firms do better than others in caring for the environment when they produce things. If children had their say, would they give money to firms that don’t care or rather to firms that do care for the planet? This book teaches children that they do have a voice because they can make choices that matter with their money.

Meet the founder

dr. Mara Harvey

Welcome Parents, I'm Mara, I'm the founder of Smart Way to Start and the CEO of a Swiss Private Bank.
In my 23 years working as a senior leader in finance, I have witnessed first-hand the difficult life situations that young adults find themselves in because no one took responsibility to teach them basic Money Skills at an early age.

In my view, teaching essential  Money Skills to children is the responsibility of every parent but many parents delay or avoid having important money conversations with their children until it is too late. This is why I made it my mission to make Financial Parenting easy and accessible, so parents worldwide can empower their children to grow up Financially Literate with a good understanding of how their daily Money Choices impact our future and the world.

Start your Financial Parenting Journey with me and learn about 4 Money Skills that you must teach your children to secure their financial future:

Dr. Stephan M. Hauska

"I couldn’t wait to read it all before I express to you my gratitude for being such an inspirational role model not only for women and men around the world but also for kids. It’s so entertaining, so cleverly written, with its funny sides and still disclosing in a frank way very honest facts with clear message for solution!"
