The lack of financial literacy in America is frightening:

• Less than 17% of students are required to take one semester of personal finance in high school 
• 1 in 4 parents reported that they never or almost never talk to their kids about household finances  
• 59% of adults in the US admitted to living paycheck to paycheck in 2019
• As of July 2019, 28% of US adults had no emergency savings 
• 1 in 3 Americans don't save any of their income 
• The fastest growing segment for bankruptcy is among people age 18 to 25
