“To fully participate in society today, financial literacy is critical.” 
      - Annamaria Lusardi, Denit Trust Professor of Economic and Accountancy at the George Washington School of Business

80% of teens 13-18 years old think "It's important to me to have a lot of money in my life." Yet, fewer than 50% consider themselves knowledgeable about how to budget money (41%), how to pay bills (34%), how credit card interest and fees work (26%), according to a recent survey by Charles Schwab & Co.

Despite the recognition that economic and financial literacy is critical to succeed in modern society, study after study shows that many Americans continue to lack even a basic understanding of economic and financial concepts, and the consequences on Americans' financial state are dire.
