Synopsis

Our financial choices have consequences. Will you choose wisely? "The Missing Semester"-- an award winning financial guide--provides a short course on the essentials for making wise financial decisions and gaining financial freedom. Although designed with the recent high school or college graduate in mind, the book is relevant to a much wider audience. It begins with the premise that your financial future is your responsibility, and that you cannot plan for or expect help. The book shows how to build a strong financial foundation, prepare for the unexpected, and confront challenges.

About this title

From the Author

Money 101, it is "The Missing Semester" in far too many of our nation's schools and homes.  We have had the privilege and pleasure to work with a growing number of organizations, high school and college students in the area loosely defined as financial literacy. The enthusiasm with which this topic is being embraced is staggering. Think about it:  every school (high school, college, trade) will have it's share of doctors, electricians, engineers, mechanics and dropouts. 100% will make decisions about money.  

The consequences of early financial decisions can be far-reaching, perhaps permanent.  While we are grateful for the programs that have implemented The Missing Semester, getting the concepts introduced to the widest audience is far more important.  Getting the concepts recognized as essential, and incorporated broadly into the educational system, have been goals since our efforts began.  This book is one tool, there are other good ones out there. 

Thank you to the countless people who have selflessly given their time in support of this book.  The list is a long one, and your time is and has been sincerely appreciated.
