JHB Guy Favorite head shot  Please support my friend Carrie Schwab-Pomerantz, president of the Charles Schwab Foundation and my fellow member of the U.S. President's Advisory Council on Financial Capability, as they launch the National Financial Capability Challenge.  A special thank you to the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Obama Administration for their support of the Challenge.  Please check this out for your children and your area schools, particularly our inner-city schools.  I have asked Operation HOPE to get the word out to our network of under-served schools.

Take the Financial Capability Challenge
