Here's the Problem Parents Don't Talk About (But Should)

Your teen is about to make financial decisions that will follow them for decades.


And nobody's teaching

them the rules.


Not in school. Not in college prep. Not anywhere.


So what happens?

Path #1:
The Debt Trap

They open their first credit card. They don't understand interest rates, minimum payments, or how fast debt compounds. Before they know it, they're trapped in a cycle of payments, stress, and damaged credit that takes years to fix.

Path #2:
The Avoidance Mistake

Or they play it "safe" and avoid credit altogether. No cards. No loans. No score. Then reality hits: they need an apartment (denied or sky-high deposit), a car loan (interest rate through the roof), insurance (paying the high-risk premium). Suddenly, doing nothing limits their options.

Here's the truth: Everyone has a credit score, whether they realize it or not. And doing nothing is still doing something, it's just expensive.

I Learned This Lesson

the Hard Way

After college, I had no debt and a steady job at a big corporation. I should have been set, right?

Wrong.

I went to buy my first car, a Honda Civic. Nothing fancy. But because I had no credit history, I walked out with a dealer-financed loan at a sky-high interest rate. Multiples of what everyone else was paying.

My dad had to bail me out by co-signing and refinancing.

I remember thinking: "This is the stuff I should have learned in school."

All because I didn't know the rules of a game I didn't even know I was playing.​

What If Your Family Could Learn Credit Together...

The Fun Way?

Game night at your house. But instead of just rolling dice and moving pieces, your teen is actually learning how credit works. They're making real-world decisions. They're seeing their score go up—and down. They're discovering what impacts credit, what doesn't, and how to use it as a tool instead of falling into traps.

And you? You're not lecturing. You're not scrambling to explain things you're not sure about yourself.

You're just playing. Together.

No shame. No stress. Just laughter, conversation, and confidence-building practice.

That's exactly what Score: The Game of Credit™ does.

We've played this game with more than 150 students in Junior High and High School.

What Parents and Students Are Saying

Why This Matters

More Than You Think

A strong credit score isn't just a number. It's a tool that can save your teen tens of thousands of dollars over their lifetime.

Here's what a good credit score affects:

Car loans

The difference between a 3% and 8% rate on a $25,000 loan?

Over $3,000 in interest.

Mortgages

On a $300,000 home, a 1% difference in your rate

= tens of thousands + over 30 years.

Apartment rentals

Bad credit = denied applications or massive deposits.

Insurance rates

Poor credit can double your car insurance premiums.

Utilities

Electric, gas, and internet companies check credit for deposits.

Job Opportunities

Many employers run credit checks, especially for financial roles.

The earlier your teen learns this, the more money

they save and less likely to make avoidable mistakes.

Common Questions (Answered)

My teen isn't interested in finances. Will they actually play this?

Yes! That's exactly why we made it a game first. It's fun, competitive, and engaging—learning is just the bonus. Most teens are surprised by how much they enjoy it.

 I don't feel confident teaching credit. Will this work for me?

Absolutely. You don't need to be an expert. The game teaches as you play. You're learning together, and that's actually more powerful than lecturing.

Is this just for teens, or can younger kids play too?

The game is designed for teens and young adults (roughly ages 13+), but younger kids with strong reading skills can play with family support. It's also great for college students and young adults building credit for the first time.

How long does it take to play?

A typical game takes 30-45 minutes. It's long enough to cover meaningful scenarios but short enough to hold attention and play multiple times.

What if my teen already has credit? Is it too late?

Not at all! Whether they're just starting or already have a card, the game helps them understand how to optimize their score and avoid common mistakes. It's never too late to learn.
