Teaching Financial Literacy to Children

Heard of Project Destined??? 

"The mission of Project Destined is to transform minority youth into owners and stakeholders in the communities in which they live, work and play. With the careful guidance of its leadership team, Project Destined will produce the nation’s largest number of minority owners of real estate under the age of 18…one block at a time."  

People from the Harvard business school are teaching and mentoring kids on how to buy and own real estate. By the end of program they own a part of a building in their own community in which their profits go toward their college education. What a POWERFUL way to teach personal accountability and responsibility for one's destiny! Would love to hear an interview about this @Brandon Turner :)

When I heard about this organization, I thought it was a phenomenal idea and I had to share! http://projectdestined.com/

@Disia Page- wish they had this when I was a kid! Sounds like a wonderful project. I'd love to try it with my own kids once I know what am doing :)
