Understanding the importance of financial literacy is crucial for building and maintaining wealth throughout life. But where does one learn it? Although financial education isn’t universally included in standard curricula, the benefits of starting early on a financial literacy journey are undeniable. While some states, like California, offer financial education electives, it remains an optional subject. Tanya Van Court, founder and CEO of Goalsetter, a FinTech platform dedicated to teaching kids and families the value of financial literacy, joins this week's episode of Financial Freestyle with Ross Mac.
