Todd and Evan reflect on what they have learned from “Money JAR” interviews over the years and from their own experiences.  They discuss a research finding by a Harvard finance professor and talk specifics about using math concepts to save $1 million.   The most effective way to teach kids about money is a well-rounded approach including financial literacy programs from organizations such as Junior Achievement, frequent talks about money from parents and mentors, and hands-on learning experiences.
