With bigger kids come bigger challenges and in this series of Teenage Boss: Next Level, the stakes are even higher. Under Emma's mentorship, watch as they hustle, stumble, strategise, and face real-world financial challenges head-on.

​

In the midst of a cost-of-living crisis, with rental and mortgage pressures, soaring electricity bills and rising fuel costs, these teens are thrown into the deep end of financial management with nothing but their wits and Emma to guide them.

​

And they're not just managing the household budget; they're also saving for their own dreams and milestones. From planning extravagant 18th birthday parties to funding an overseas gap year or buying their first cars, the goals are bigger than ever before.

​

Meet teens like Jack (17), the confident soccer player who always manages to land on his feet, but will implementing a sausage-only diet for his mum and sister result in a mutiny?

​

Or there is Lainie (15), the pragmatically minded budding beef baron determined to save for a breeding heifer at any cost, even if it means cutting back on family luxuries or a family member... Or Ethan (15) the budding radio presenter desperate to buy his first car.

​

As these teens take on the challenge of managing household expenses, from budgeting for groceries to handling unexpected bills, viewers will witness the real-world impact of economic pressures on Australian families. With Emma's advice, they'll navigate the complexities of financial independence, teaching both themselves and their parents invaluable lessons about money management in today's challenging economic landscape.
