$1.08 – Empowering Your Community with Grassroots Financial Literacy

Recall your earliest money memory? Do you remember tagging along with adults to the grocery store or visiting a bank to make a deposit or even overhearing your parents discussing their budgeting plans? From our earliest memories, we have witnessed the importance of financial literacy at an early age even if we didn’t realize it at the time. Join us (George and Anirban) as we delve into the various barriers that prevent many individuals and communities from accessing financial education, and explore the impact that this lack of education has on wealth inequality and economic mobility. Our guest (Trsitan Bragg) also shares strategies for overcoming these barriers and increasing financial literacy in underserved communities.
