Have you heard about Khan Academy? It's a not-for-profit with the goal of changing education. It offers a wonderful, easy way to learn by providing a free, world-class education for anyone anywhere. It covers math, science, finance and history.

They have recently partnered with Bank of America and created a website offering videos that teach about money management: www.bettermoneyhabits.com

You may learn how to compute compound interest, to manage credit and to buy or rent a house. You do not have to be a BoA customer as the site stands alone.

We are so fortunate to live with and use technology. If we don't know something, there are so many ways we may learn using the internet. Check out the site and see what new ideas they offer. My favorite section is on understanding credit. It really opens your eyes to the cost of borrowing and building your credit score.

Be $ smart; keep learning how to better manage your money.
