With population of 30.9 million, these babies of the boomers range between the ages of 12 and 20, and are the fastest growing customer segment in America. They've also got bucks. According to research from the New York marketing services firm, YouthStream, this group spends $120 billion year. They influence another $30 billion in annual spending, too, as the parent of any teen can confirm.

It's customizable program, and we actually go into schools and do classroom work, explains Alison Charello, director of marketing for the 14-branch bank with $802 million in assets, based in Abington, Mass. The students often tour the bank or learn about our website, and from there we hope kids will open accounts with us. But what happens when those kids graduate from the ABC's of elementary school? Most banks all but disappear from the horizon, says Charlene Stern, senior vice president of NewGround, headquartered in Manchester, Mo.
