As we gear up for the new school year, our Grab The Key Jr. program and Movement Schools partnered with FICO to help provide valuable financial education to our scholars. This is just one way we’re working to set the next generation up for success and bridge the gap in homeownership for Black Americans. #movementmortgage #mortgagesthatmeanmore #impactlending #grabthekeyjr #MovementSchools #students #Fico

"I teach people how to build systems to manage their money. The systems are always personalized, but the common themes are that we try to work with our money psychology rather than against it, and we try to automate as much of our systems as possible such that we know we’re doing everything right to live for today and the future." Cool to see this article this morning highlighting On Tap Credit Union's Financial Education Program that I run, and about my story of finding On Tap - a local, community-oriented #creditunion that wants to give back to members with REAL financial help - teaching to fish rather than giving a fish! https://lnkd.in/gAmKvC-e #financialeducation #cudifference #moneymanagement

📣 Exciting News 🎉 Today, students had a taste of real-world financial decisions during the Bite of Reality program. 🍽️💰 🔍 What’s the Bite of Reality? It’s an interactive simulation that puts teens in the driver’s seat of their finances. Here’s how it works: Fictional Lives: Each student steps into a fictional life with an occupation, salary, credit score, spouse, child, student loan debt, and credit card debt. Budget Challenges: They visit various stations to “purchase” housing, transportation, food, clothing, and other necessities. 🏠🚗🛒 Credit Union Assistance: Fortunately, there’s a “credit union” to help them navigate financial needs. 💡 Real-Life Scenarios: Students deal with pushy car salespeople, commission-based realtors, and unexpected expenses—just like in real life! 💸 🌟 Why Is It Important? The Bite of Reality teaches teens how to make informed financial choices, balance wants vs. needs, and live within a budget. It’s a fun, safe, and eye-opening experience! 👀 🙌 Thank You to Our Volunteers! A big shoutout to the volunteers who made this event possible. Your dedication helps shape our students’ financial futures. 🙏 #FinancialLiteracy #BiteOfReality #McLainHighSchool #SmartMoneyChoices Jeffco Public Schools - Colorado GoWest Credit Union Association

The earlier children begin their financial education journey, the more responsible they often tend to be. Many young kids find success with smaller goals. ALINE Wealth's Gina Grippo-Martinez gives great advice: "...focus on a smaller, immediate goal like a toy, and build up to larger goals over time, such as saving for summer camp or college... Younger children can understand saving for shorter time periods — such as 'by the end of the week' – and gradually, they understand longer timeframes like months and years." #ALINEWealth #FinancialPlanning #FinancialEducation
