Krista has authored several wonderful blogs for Sammy Rabbit dot com. Here is an excerpt from one of them that will give you a feel for how and why financial literacy education is important to her.
... I grew up in a household and culture where talking about money was considered bad luck. This superstition had a profound effect on how I was raised in regards to money. My parents rarely talked about money, and when they did, it tended to be in negative terms, such as not having enough, or not being able to afford something.
The lack of clear communication from my parents translated differently for my brother and me. I would save all the money I received for my birthday and holidays.
