Young Money magazine offered financial advice for young adults. USA Today noted that Young Money "shifted its focus to the college-aged market" in 2002[5] The Washington Post described Young Money as "a personal finance magazine for adolescents". Todd Romer, the publisher of Young Money, was quoted in the Post article stating "More teens today are becoming aware of the significant advantage of starting to manage their money now while they're young".
