One thing I truly believe is that it's never too early or too late to take steps to get a better grasp on personal finance. (Even if you already think you know what you're doing! J)
There are tons of great resources and organizations out there that can help you understand your finances and why you should care about them. Or for those of you who have a bit better grasp on your financial situation, improve your already smart money management !
Here's a quick shout out to one organization in particular, the Jump$tart Coalition® for Personal Financial Literacy.
They're a group of organizations focused on advancing financial literacy among students in pre-kindergarten through college. This week they're hosting a national conference
of educators.
In the past month you've gotten to know a little bit more about the financial education available through Stagecoach Island®. Some of my colleagues who work on that program and other financial education projects with Wells Fargo will be at the national conference. And they'll be posting updates throughout the conference on one of Wells Fargo's Facebook pages.
Check it out! In between updates over there, check out the Jump$tart organizations in your state.
