One is worth $39 billion, while the other has a comparatively meager $450 million but significantly more street cred with young people. So Warren Buffett and Jay-Z are teaming up to teach kids about financial literacy. Buffett's animated series Secret Millionaires Club is set to move from the web to television this month, and an animated Jay-Z is the guest star for the first episode on October 23.
Jay-Z and Warren Buffett Team Up to Teach Kids Financial Literacy - Education - GOOD
I think this is a great idea. Financial literacy is more important than a lot of the stuff that is normally taught in school, and yet most schools don't even offer a class on it. For that matter, this country could use some financial literacy initiatives aimed at adults too. I can't think of a more effective anti-poverty program, in the long term.
