How does your financial literacy compare to today’s top high school students? Let’s put it to the test.

Across America, conversations about financial literacy are finally gaining momentum—and not a moment too soon. For decades, the lack of essential money knowledge has left millions stuck in a frustrating cycle of  confusion, poor financial decisions, and missed opportunities to build wealth. The long-term consequences have been devastating, from crushing debt to limited financial mobility.

But here’s the good news: the tide is starting to turn. People are waking up to the importance of understanding how money works, and efforts to teach financial literacy are finally reaching more individuals, especially younger generations.

Take the recent National Personal Finance Challenge held in Atlanta, for example. Over 120 of the nation’s brightest high school students competed in a high-stakes showdown of personal finance knowledge. Sponsored by the Council for Economic Education, these students tackled real-world money topics—everything from the benefits of Roth IRAs and compound interest to the pitfalls of credit card traps and budgeting strategies. Their performance is proof that when given the tools and education, the next generation can thrive financially and master the principles of money management.

And here’s the takeaway: this wasn’t just a quiz. It was a wake-up call for everyone. If high school students can master this material, adults across America can too—if they have access to the right resources.

That’s where WealthWave comes in.

"Understanding how money works empowers you to stop being taken advantage of, embrace learning, and create the financial future you’ve always envisioned."
