I wanted to let you know how awesome I thought these courses were! They were so informative for me even after having worked in finance for the last 10 years! I really liked how detailed and useful the information/topics were and that they were worded in a way folks who maybe aren’t so familiar with the finance world can understand! I’m telling you if these would have been available to me when I was 16, 17, 18, it would have been a gamechanger! I really think this will take off and be extremely helpful to our customers, young and old!

I sincerely mean it; I think it was simple language but wonderfully written explanations on the how and why of so many VERY important financial topics! The sooner folks start learning the better, that is for sure!
