Money Matters University exists to make financial literacy accessible at every age and stage of life.
We do this though four learning modes which allow each individual to engage in the material in multiple ways while also encouraging healthy discussion about important topics.
Milestone 1-4 covers our entire twenty-four lesson experience. In this print curriculum, each learner is invited to unpack financial literacy topics such as:
Why Money?
Job Search
Needs vs. Wants
Budgets
Cash Flow
Navigating Mistakes
Self-Discipline & Contentment
Social Responsibility
Financial Habits
Debit & Credit Cards
Debt
Credit Score
Assets & Liabilities
Loans
Taxes
The IRS
The Stock Market
Retirement
Risk Management
Avoiding Scams
Identity Theft
Entrepreneurship
A Business Plan
Financial Success
Every lesson includes four modalities:
Part 1: The Video
Each topic includes multiple 2-5 minute videos from Money Matters University founder, Richard Greco. Through storytelling and teaching, Richard unpacks each topic’s theme in an engaging, audio-visual learning opportunity.
Part 2: The Lesson
Through text-based learning, each micro-learning section includes a reading portion which highlights facts and features of that topic, along with examples.
Part 3: The Response
We believe that some of the best learning happens when decision-making is involved. After each video, each learner is presented with comprehensive processing questions, in which to share their financial style. The goal? To build our financial language.
Part 4: The Challenge
Lastly, our “Take Action Challenge” is found at the conclusion of each topic. This provides learners a chance to put what they have absorbed into practice in an accessible way, all with video-based guidance, templates, and a challenge to take the next step.
