Financial literacy is a major crisis, especially amongst millennials. How do we solve it?

If you want to help #Millennials become financial literate, use video. That’s one of their favorite ways to learn, according to the new GFLEC-Singleton Foundation study.

Where do you get your #finlit? Many #Millennials rely on their friends, family and the rest of their social network to learn about #personalfinance, shows the new GFLEC-Singleton Foundation study. One surprising finding: 42% of millennials model their financial behavior after their parents.

A startling fact: Of Millennials who aren’t engaged with online financial resources or aren’t interested in learning, about 20% have no idea how or where to start learning about managing their money, and nearly 40% say they don’t have enough money to even need information on how to manage it. This according to the new GFLEC-Singleton Study. This is the problem we’re working to solve.
