More Infographics!!!! NGPF Partners with Visual Capitalist on Wealth 101 Project

I'm excited about our newest initiative with Visual Capitalist (VC) that we are calling Wealth 101. As readers of the NGPF Blog, you know how often we use Visual Capitalist infographics to explain challenging concepts. Through this partnership, VC will be creating a series of infographics and a few videos so educators will have another tool in their toolbox to engage their students.

Here's more on the rationale behind Wealth 101:

Wealth 101 is the personal finance course you’ve always deserved. Using powerful infographics and data visualizations, it will be updated regularly to build out a compelling base of lessons for people of all ages and backgrounds. Wealth 101 infographics can all be accessed at http://wealth.visualcapitalist.com

Our foundational infographics to launch Wealth 101 are:

  • The Financial Literacy Problem is a MUST for all educators advocating for personal finance education in their schools. It uses a series of data points to explain the problem and then ends on an optimistic note with the way forward and how we will solve the problem. 
  • The Personal Finance Landscape uses a wheel diagram showing the most important concepts to gain financial independence. It also has a chart that I love that shows the multi-disciplinary nature of personal finance.

Be sure to bookmark the Wealth 101 page as we look to add 1-2 new infographics each month over the next year.

About the Author

Tim Ranzetta

Tim's saving habits started at seven when a neighbor with a broken hip gave him a dog walking job. Her recovery, which took almost a year, resulted in Tim getting to know the bank tellers quite well (and accumulating a savings account balance of over $300!). His recent entrepreneurial adventures have included driving a shredding truck, analyzing executive compensation packages for Fortune 500 companies and helping families make better college financing decisions. After volunteering in 2010 to create and teach a personal finance program at Eastside College Prep in East Palo Alto, Tim saw firsthand the impact of an engaging and activity-based curriculum, which inspired him to start a new non-profit, Next Gen Personal Finance.
