SynopsisFinancial knowledge and experience influence our decisions all day, every day. Your choice of a 99-cent cup of coffee, a five dollar espresso drink, or nothing at all is based on any number of external factors, but also on your knowledge of your financial situation, available cash or funds, and planned expenditures. Many adults attend financial education classes to help them better understand this kind of decision making, and to give these classes the attention they deserve, we are bringing together scholars from the fields of adult education and financial literacy. The authors present a series of chapters on topics that reveal the interrelatedness of the two fields. They show how concepts and knowledge about adult education can be utilized in and illuminate financial education, and they offer insights about how financial education, as an eminently practical subject, shows adults learning and putting their new knowledge into action., Many adults attend financial education classes to help them make more informed financial decisions, based on their knowledge of their financial situation available cash or funds planned expenditures., Many adults attend financial education classes to help them make more informed financial decisions, based on their knowledge of their financial situation available cash or funds planned expenditures.
