Financial Literacy and Financial Fragility

Knowledge can lead to better choices—and lower our anxiety about money matters. An expert connects the dots.

Annamaria Lusardi, Professor of Economics and Accountancy at the George Washington University School of Business, calls personal finance a “happiness project.” Being financially secure takes a big worry off the table and puts us in a better position to achieve our dreams. Krishna, Pattie Christensen, and Annamaria talk about the benefits of increasing our understanding of saving, investing, and savvy debt management.
