The President’s Advisory Council on Financial Literacy was created on January 22, 2008 by President George W. Bush. The Council’s purpose is to help keep America competitive and assist the American people in understanding and addressing financial matters. The 16-member council is headed by financial icon Charles Schwab.
The council recently issued a request for public comments regarding the state of financial literacy in the United States and proposed solutions to improve it. Click here to see the request for comments in the Federal Register. As a passionate advocate of financial literacy at all levels, I welcomed the opportunity to provide my "2-cents." Click here to see a copy of the 5-page "white paper" I provided with my thoughts and suggestions on the topic. The deadline for submissions is May 23rd, so please send your comments along as well!
