Eugene Natali – Author, Financial Analyst & Financial Literacy Advocate

Personal Notes

Money 101, it is “The Missing Semester” in far too many of our nation’s schools and homes.  We have had the privilege and pleasure to work with a growing number of organizations, high school and college students in the area loosely defined as financial literacy. The enthusiasm with which this topic is being embraced is staggering. Think about it: every school (high school, college, trade) will have it’s share of doctors, electricians, engineers, mechanics and dropouts. One hundred percent will make decisions about money.  The consequences of early financial decisions can be far-reaching, perhaps permanent.  While we are grateful for the programs that have implemented The Missing Semester, getting the concepts introduced to the widest audience is far more important. Getting the concepts recognized as essential, and incorporated broadly into the educational system, have been goals since our efforts began.
