This week in financial literacy (February 13, 2009)

  • The Anderson Library at the University of Wisconsin Whitewater posted a couple links to sites where you can test your own financial literacy.  They also listed a number of resources that can be found in their library (and maybe yours) to improve your own financial knowledge.
  • There will be a free financial education seminar sponsored by Carver Federal Savings Bank, Fidelity Investments & SBLI USA with guest Congressman Charles B. Rangel (D) at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture on Saturday, February 20, 2010.  This seminar, Your Money and You, is free and will be open to the public to attend.  More details are in the press release.
  • The comptroller of the state of Maryland urges all Maryland voters to support legislation introduced in the General Assembly that would require Maryland high school students to complete a stand-alone course in financial literacy to graduate from high school.
