LOS ANGELES, California, Nov. 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OMG, Inc. and Oksana Enrichment Programs are excited to announce a new endeavor that will lead and empower the next generation to care about their financial future. Spearheaded by the teenage son of OMG, Inc, and Oksana Enrichment Programs founders, 15-year-old Alessandro Concas has designed a financial literacy curriculum that will teach children and teens about money management, fiscal responsibility and entrepreneurship in a dynamic, fun and inclusive way.

“There is a gap in financial education, and I’ve seen it with my own friends and young people my age,” said Concas.  “Most kids don’t have a clue about finances in general and we’re going to change that.”

The need for this type of programming is in the data. Right now only about half of Americans are considered “financially literate.” In fact,  research by Payroll.org found that 78% of Americans say they are living paycheck-to-paycheck while a survey by AARP shows that 20% of those over 50 have no retirement savings, and 61% are concerned they haven’t saved enough for retirement.

“We feel that everyone deserves to learn how money works, especially in times like these when many people wish they were more financially grounded,” said OMG Co-Founder Oksana Kolesnikova.  “The simple times we explore in this new program will arm kids and teens with money management skills and the confidence to master money before it masters them.”

Some of the topics include What is Money?, Spending/Allowance Plans, Budgeting, Saving and Investing, What is a Stock, How Credit and Debt Work, Charity Donations, Cost of College, Thinking Big/Goal-Setting and many more.

Alessandro is available to talk more about the need for this innovative curriculum, as well as share his own experience as a young entrepreneur.
