For Financial Literacy Month, in partnership with Natalie Zfat, Entrepreneur and Forbes Contributor, we enlisted successful leaders in all different fields such as Mark Cuban, Randi Zuckerberg, Andrew Ross Sorkin, Alexa von Tobel and others to inspire kids to start saving and raise awareness for personal finance and economic education in our nation’s schools. Throughout the entire month, the participants shared their best money-savings tip.
The #MySavingsTip campaign and a handful of participants were featured throughout the month on CNBC, CNBC Make It, Mashable and HuffPost. Here’s a great round-up along with an inspiring video of the campaign from CNBC Make It, “Mark Cuban and 24 other leaders and execs offer their No. 1 best money-saving tip.”
It’s true: “you don’t have to be young to benefit from the advice.”
