Did You Take Econ or a Personal Finance Class in High School or College?

Finally, a state has required high school students to take a class on personal finance. Paul talks about the need for good education for all Americans around economics and personal finance and shares some common misconceptions the average American has because this kind of education wasn’t prioritized in the past. Listen along as Paul shares a few books you can read to catch up on basic personal finance and economics topics and why education keeps you from being manipulated by people who know a little bit more than you do. Later in the episode, Paul covers what happens when the FED drops interest rates more than we think. Is this a political move or is there something the FED knows that we don’t?
