I believe it is the responsibility of us all to educate others to be more financially smart. … I work with high school seniors in our community as they are preparing to be independent from their parents — teaching them how to prioritize their spending habits, credit cards and emergency savings.

Many Americans well understand but for others it is a necessity today. The approach of ‘buy now, pay later’ has caught up with many, which in turn has affected all of us.

Yes, spending too much and saving too little has gotten us in the mess we are in.

Absolutely! Any knowledge that you can gain with regards to your own finances is critical, especially with today's current financial crisis.
