Do you think you know the basics when it comes to financial literacy? By the time adolescents reach middle school, they have already developed the capacity to understand complex economic concepts, make financial judgments, and assign value to purchases and brands. Yet the majority of today’s schoolchildren are not receiving the personal finance education they need to navigate the modern financial world.
The MassMutual Foundation is confident that financial education is the key to reversing some of the chilling trends in financial literacy, capacity, and wealth distribution. That’s why we’ve partnered with EVERFI to bring FutureSmart to 2 million students by the year 2020.
