“The reality in America today is that the VAST majority of the populace are clueless when it comes to finances. Financial illiteracy is bad news for us as individuals and for our nation collectively. For whatever reasons, I think we can point a finger directly at America’s schools. We teach our children how to put a condom on a banana and that Christopher Columbus was a bad, baaad man, but where’s the class that teaches our young ‘uns how to balance a checkbook or calculate the ridiculous rate of interest you’ll ultimately be gouged for down at the local payday loan center? Correcting this colossal ignorance is what the Young Wealth Show podcast is all about. Host, Jason Hartman, has a bone to pick with state of financial education in public schools and aims to make a difference. He does a pretty good job.”
