It isn’t easy learning how to be good at money. Schools don’t teach you and families don’t always talk about finances.
Consumers lacking financial literacy spend more on transaction fees, run up bigger debts, save less money and incur higher interest rates on loans (Lusardi and Tufano, 2015; Lusardi and de Bassa Scheresberg, 2013).
Meanwhile, benefits of financial literacy are manifold. People with strong financial skills do a better job planning and saving for retirement.
