Braun's Application for "The Best Job Ever"

Totally unrelated to my normal blog posts about advocating for financial literacy, here is my 1:00 minute video application for "The Best Job" ever as the caretaker of the Islands of the Great Barrier Reef for 6 months.

As a PR campaign, the Tourism Authority in Queensland, Australia has solicited such applications from some 34,000 people across the world, and will narrow it down to a short list of 50 on March 2, 2009.

We took a break from documentary filming for just a day to put this together, and although I did it just for fun, I think the job would be the perfect fit for me! Enjoy the video and be sure to vote for me if you like it!

President's Council on Financial Literacy

I'm cleaning up and organizing my website a bit, so I decided to move this document over to my BLOG.

The good news is that we have interviewed or spoken to a good number of the Council members as part of our documentary film production, and they are going to continue to be very instrumental in positive driving change as it relates to helping American's become more financially literate.
