HOW IT GOT STARTED

While it's currently not the norm nor widely regarded as essential, financial literacy should be taught very early. Early enough to have a foundation of some basic principles on how to create, protect and grow your financial assets. Even with advances in technology that allow ease of access to information, many people do not seek these skills until they've made some very big and bad financial mistakes and have to fix them quickly usually around the time they need to make big purchases like homes or even obtain business loans. I believe that moms should be equipped to disseminate a lot of these essential financial lessons because of their unique position in life.
