Why Was Create Every Opportunity Created?
After finding out about America’s financial literacy problem, we knew we had to create a solution to help younger generations from falling into the trap. The numbers don’t lie; Americans have a financial literacy problem. Nearly two-thirds of Americans can’t pass a basic test of financial literacy. It’s splashed across the headlines every other day – U.S. college students continue to struggle with massive debt. There’s also the uptick in adults living paycheck to paycheck. The message about our country’s lack of financial literacy is loud and clear. It may seem surprising, but a third of all small business owners never got any further than high-school. This is an inspirational piece of information for the majority of young people who are worried they won’t accomplish anything without going to college. In the near future, we hope to see CEO help pave the way for a massive push with regard to entrepreneurship, common sense knowledge and financial literacy education.
"People often point out how important education is. While it does provide us with the knowledge to get through life, education doesn’t necessarily give us the tools needed to survive in the real world. Once they finish school or decide to drop out, they realize they severely lack the knowledge of many important subjects. Create Every Opportunity or CEO is an organization that’s looking to fix that problem." - MarketWatch
