Jim Poe called the financial literacy campaign an example of how he wants his radio show to be different. He said, “The Found Money Report is all about education. Each week we talk about ways that people can prepare for success in retirement. The financial literacy campaign talks about the basics that we must master in order to be successful money managers in our lives.”
Since starting an adult education college course, “Conservative Investing for Retirement”, in January 2013, Jim Poe’s role as a financial educator has grown steadily. The course was launched at UTA in Arlington and is now offered at college campuses throughout North Texas.
