  • This shocking statistic is exactly why I started speaking at schools about the importance of financial education.
  • A recent study found that just 26% of young adults had any form of financial education in school, leaving nearly 4 million school leavers without a fundamental understanding of money management a decade after it was added to the curriculum.
