The key to a better life
On 26 April 2005, about 7,400 American bankers went back to school. This time they did not go to learn. They went to teach primary and secondary school students how to handle their money. The bankers wanted to help the students be able to make smart decisions about their money. They said that “education and money management skills are keys to a better life.”
