Why Trust Young People With Money
Back in December, we sat down with Rooted students on the first day of the “$50 Study”. They had JUST learned that they were chosen to participate and were still wrapping their head around this research, its mission, and why it exists. For this episode, we wanted to share with you their individual goals for the year ahead and their bigger dreams around “financial freedom”.
Lastly, Rooted started this study with the fundamental belief young adults can be trusted with money AND that access to cash at this earlier age might disrupt income inequality. We believe that money is a necessary tool that many students simply don’t have and we wanted to ask Rooted students why youth should be trusted with money. Listen to students explain how this study could impact their lives in big and small ways
