Week’s Best from Kid Wealth (#5)

As you know, this has been a tough week to be a parent. Some 90% of Americans want some gun control laws passed and 50 politicians are being paid by the gun control lobby to ignore the problem or mischaracterize it. There are a lot of great things that I love about living in America, but I’d like to opt-out of the shootings. Every other country has figured it out. It’s time for America to get out of last place in gun deaths.

Here’s what caught my eye this week. As usual, send cool to me through Twitter by cc-ing “@KidWealth” on it.

• I loved the included image in the Tweet below. There’s a lot going on and it makes me want to schedule some time to listen to the podcast.

• I know this is “Massachusetts only” news and a little old, but Money Experience looks very motivating for high school students to adults. It’s something to keep an eye on.

  We are thrilled to announce the expansion of our partnership with @moneyXperience, an online financial education program for students at community colleges/state universities and interns in MA.

  Join our webinar this Thursday to learn more!
