Broadcast Date: Jan. 15, 2009
The Iowa Journal examines financial literacy—what it is, why Americans may have to change their spending and savings habits, and how to navigate today's financial downturn.
The current financial crisis has changed our country. The underpinnings of our sense of safety and security have been rocked loose leaving Americans in search of stable ground. Improving financial literacy could provide a much needed lifeline. What do Americans need to know about managing their money in today's economy?
