Last week I had the pleasure to talk with my colleague Tony Isola an Investment Advisor Representative here at Ritholtz Wealth Mangement. I got Tony on the phone to talk about a recent post of his entitled “What Happened When We Spent a Week Teaching High School Kids About Money” which relays his experience along with colleagues Dina Isola and Matt Lohrius teaching high schoolers the basics of personal finance. We also discuss why teaching financial literacy is such a foreign concept in our school systems. This is another episode in our series of “mini-pods” on The Compound Show. I hope you enjoy the discussion.
