"Just as it was not possible to live in an industrialized society without literacy - the ability to read and write - so it is not possible to live in today's world without being financially literate. To fully participate in society today, financial literacy is critical."

- Annamaria Lusardi, Academic Director, Global Center for Financial Literacy at The George Washington School of Business
