KUSA - A new game is aiming at getting kids educated about money so they are ready to manage their finances when they get older.
It's called Financial Soccer.
Brian McBride, a forward with the Chicago Fire, appeared on 9NEWS 6 a.m. to tell us how it works.
"You've got your team basically on the screen, passing the ball to another teammate, and you either have an easy question, a medium question or a hard question and each question is based around your age group, so when you sign on, if you're an 11 to 14-year-old, or if you're a 14 to 18-year-old or an 18 and up, there's specific questions for what probably you're going to be understanding or need to learn doing those periods," McBride said.

McBride is 37 years old. We asked him how he's been able to be successful for so long.
"I think the first thing is you need to be fit and the physical side of things, as you get older, if you let yourself go a little bit, you can get yourself in trouble, sort of what we're here to talk about with the financial soccer," McBride said. "You stay focused on your goals and have a plan and in finance it's a budget, in soccer, it's making sure you have a goal toward your fitness side of things and making sure you improve yourself as a player."
