Listen now
Description

Get to know a few of them and how they are delivering personal finance education into their classrooms. Plus, the stock market is doing its "November" thing, again, but only a few stocks are carrying the load. That's been a hallmark of 2023, which has provided us with another critical lesson in why we don't market time.
