The United States is currently in the midst of its worst financial (economic) crisis since the "Great Depression".  Much of the crisis can be attributed to questionable practices on Wall Street however, the blame can also be attributed to the lack of "Financial Literacy" in America today.  The purpose of this Workshop is to share my experiences in the development and teaching of a course in" Financial Literacy".
