   Financial illiteracy is the #1 economic crisis in the world. Why isn\'t this important life-skill taught in school with any real, actionable substance? You don’t learn it from your friends, family or co-workers. Chances are, they don’t know either. And this causes a lot of problems. We didn\'t see an education program that could fill the need for this problem, so we built our own. We teach from the best-selling personal finance book in America. It’s called HowMoneyWorks, Stop Being a Sucker. We have it available in Spanish too. We also have a new book out titled HowMoneyWorks for Women, Take Control or Lose It. These books have been featured on Network TV, Online, Print, and Social Media all over North America from outlets such as ABC, CBS, CNBC, NBC, Fox and The Wall Street Journal to name a few. They estimate over 50 million people have seen the cover of the book on TV. With over new readers a month, this is the preeminent financial education tool in middle America. If reading the book by itself is enough for you, great. But this is just the first step to our education process. Since this is so important, most people would like some help. We teach classes from the book, on Zoom and live, in both English and Spanish, for individuals, families, small groups, schools, and employers. This is the first financial book that is thin, simple and fun. It’s not boring. It’s for anyone from ages 8 to beyond. Becoming financially literate and having access to great products and services is not just for the affluent. We believe everyone deserves access. HowMoneyWorks | e2E | WealthWave
