With all the news about the financial meltdown, the focus is beginning to shift to prevention. Gary Davis of KPLU recently aired a segment, which featured Maryann Yamaguchi of Mount Rainier High School, discussing financial literacy among students. Yamaguchi teaches a course called Independent Living, which raises awareness of family finances, how interest works, student loans, and how to plan for personal financial stability.
