One question we often get asked is: Can schools teach our children about financial literacy?

Well, the Kosher Money team set out to speak to seniors at HAFTR (Hebrew Academy of the 5 Towns) in Cedarhurst, NY to learn more about what schools are and are not teaching, how these young adults view money and to share tips and tricks with the future leaders of the Jewish people.

Stacey Zrihen, a certified financial planner and expert budgeter, joined us at the school and shared her always-enjoyable insights.
