Kathleen speaks with FPA of New England chapter President Marybeth Breed and Massachusetts State Treasurer Deborah Goldberg about the various initiatives Treasurer Goldberg has worked on to promote financial education across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We learn about the task force she convened to determine the best approaches to developing financial education in our communities, the work of the Office of Economic Empowerment and the Baby Steps savings program, and why the Treasurer believes that financial education is a proactive medicine that can be used to address other problems. We also discuss why educating kids about finances as part of the school curriculum is such an important objective, the bi-partisan bill she put forth requiring financial education in our schools, and the challenges of getting new topics added to school curriculum.
