Tim Ranzetta, NGPF - Teaching America Personal Finance | #524

The Meb Faber Show

Today’s guest is Tim Ranzetta, co-founder of Next Gen Personal Finance, a non-profit organization working to increase access to financial education.

In today’s episode, Tim updates us on everything going on with Next Gen Personal Finance. You all know I’m a huge proponent of teaching kids personal finance and Tim is as focused on this making this happen as much as anyone. He talks about “Mission 2030,” which is to guarantee every high school student in the US takes at least one semester-long personal finance course by 2030.

Tim also shares how you can get involved in your community, along with some books and podcasts he’d suggest for kids to teach them about personal finance.

I have a feeling in 7 years, Tim will be back on the show to celebrate achieving Mission 2030.
