Interesting article, with several ways to cut spending.

Will VC money flow into education?

This is an interesting topic... Several articles have been recently published which go over the in and outs of some of the front running "scientific" education companies. VC money is harder to come by these days, and companies now have to watch their "burn rate". So I ask what is stopping VC companies from pouring money into the newer financial education sector. These companies are at the cutting edge of a new generational shift. Money and how people save and spend it is going to be a huge issue in the next decade. The American ecnomoy has been built over overleverage and overindulgence for many years, if people had a better grasp from a young age of financialy repercutions everyone would be in a better place. I liked this article, because i think there should be a huge interest from VC funds for companies promoting education. Hopefully you enjoy the read.

Everfi - very interesting company

Readers of this blog know I went to Bowdoin College. Bowdoin has produced many great entrepreneurs and business leaders. Recently I read about one company "Everfi". Everfi seems to be a financial/technology company that gets it. As a country we are in a world of financial hurts... Daily articles cover the front pages of national media publications regarding financial issues. Everfi which you can learn more at while going to the link www.everfi.com, helps student and young professionals navigate through the financial maze, giving those students who take part in the everfi program the necessary knowledge to be financially literate. I would urge you to checkout this company.
