Financial Education

I often come across really interesting information I like to share. There is an organization called the National Endowment for Financial Education that puts out some great research and has developed age appropriate financial education programs to be used at all grade levels within the school environment. The website is http://www.nefe.org/. One article particularly useful addresses the topic of raising a money smart child.

There are other tons of articles available at http://www.smartaboutmoney.org/ especially for those friends who do not work with a financial planner who maybe should be considering it.



Another great resource is the Mature Market Institute at http://www.metlife.com/ under the "brokers & consultants" tab which addresses issues of retirement, longevity, long term care insurance, social security and medicare.



There is so much information available on the internet--it's nice to have a guidepost. If anyone else has found helpful websites, please post so we can all take a look.

Thanks for reading.
