#208 – Why Do More People Need Financial Literacy? Financial Freedom, Valuable Investments, Cryptocurrency & Creating The Rapunzl App With Brian Curcio

Brian Curcio is this week’s guest, to talk about his financial literacy app Rapunzl and to answer Mike’s many questions regarding financial literacy, cryptocurrency, education and more!

In more detail, Brian explains why he & his partner Myles created Rapunzl before Mike asks questions surrounding the use of financial literacy, why there is such a gap in people’s financial knowledge, Brian’s opinions on investments and cryptocurrencies, what financial freedom is, how these questions can affect society as a whole and so much more – this conversation will hopefully widen people’s horizons on their own finances and get you to ask many questions yourselves!
