She needs to dig deep to come up smelling of roses!

Arrayah
Arrayah lives with a family of spenders and readily admits she’s not the best at saving money. Her mum Rini’s motto is “happy tummy, happy life” and that means a big slice of the family budget is spent on food and eating out.

In a Teenage Boss first, Tate and his younger sister Lola both applied to be Teenage Boss, but only one can be in charge of the family budget and Tate is given that responsibility.

The ABC is delighted to announce Teenage Boss: Next Level is returning for Season 3, premiering on Friday 31 July on ABC iview and Saturday 1 August at 7.30pm on ABC Family.
With guidance from adored host Emma Watkins, a brand-new group of teens from across New South Wales will take control of their family’s budget for an entire month.
The new Teenage Bosses will quickly find out how to make every dollar count for their household while also saving for their own goal: whether it’s building a home gym, funding a filmmaking project or booking a gap year trip to Europe. But with wildly rising grocery costs, inflated petrol prices that won’t behave and unplanned big-ticket expenses, the numbers don’t always stack up.
With tips and tricks from Emma along the way, Teenage Boss: Next Level is a funny, honest look at what happens when teenagers take charge.
