I’ve thought about going to grad school to get a master’s degree, so I can teach ESL to adults.

Today there is much talk about how young adults are financially illiterate as if financial literacy were adequate to build wealth. Millions of people have read one of the best financial literacy books out there “Rich Dad,Poor Dad” yet there is a loss of translation somewhere between the sound principles of financial literacy and their utility in building wealth. Somewhere, there still is a bridge to building wealth that books such as “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” have failed to cross. This bridge is one of not financial literacy, but one of wealth literacy.

Hi,

I am from Turkey. Like most of the developing countries, lots of adults can read but are not interested in regular reading. Book publishing rates are low and the variety is limited. There aren’t many public libraries either.

I’m looking for a charity to see about joining or donating something to, but I’d like it to be a charity that encourages literacy in all ages.
