This is awesome! I hope the idea takes off. Schools need to do more to give kids a basic financial education because a lot of parents don’t. Teaching kids good financial habits early is never a bad thing.

It's criminal that years of algebra are forced down kids' throats, yet there's little or zero time for basic personal finance. Algebra impacts 0.1% of people's lives... and personal finance 100%.
