Having just received approval for my first set of class textbooks to teach my Math and Financial Applications I and II (personal finance course), I would love to have a class supplement that provides quick learning opportunities that highlight the basic and simple concepts that can allow my students to avoid following the trend of "debt is normal". My favorite oxymoron is "good debt". While we do explore some of the "benefits" to some debt, simply put no debt is better than good debt. My students have taken the initiative to take a class that will set them apart from the crowd. I have been very fortunate to witness some of my students (in very short order) go on and establish outstanding financial habits and achieve some goals that it takes the average consumer a decade or longer to achieve.
