How Financially Literate are YOU?

Financial literacy is a passion of mine.

Its importance is far too often overlooked in today’s educational system, and society overall.

While we at Savings Beagle primarily search out and publish money saving deals and advice, we also throw in a little financial education along the way.

I came across this article, “How Financially Literate are You Really? Let’s Find Out,” in The Wall Street Journal, and thought it would be a great piece for readers of Savings Beagle to check out.

The author, Dr. Meir Statman, makes a very cogent point that not only is financial literacy important, but, so too, are financial comprehension and financial behavior.

Dr. Statman’s eight questions test all three and will likely provide financial insights that will help you better manage your money going forward.

Give the article and questions a look here:
