Toronto Students Learn Money Management Skills

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Feb. 3, 2012) - Debt. Bad credit. Paycheque to paycheque. These words are far too common today, all because of poor financial management. EnRICHed Academy founder and Toronto native, Kevin Cochran, is sharing his money management skills to students at his former high school - trying to stop kids from making the same mistakes he made and so many adults continue to make today.

"No one is taking responsibility for teaching our kids about financial literacy and money management," says Cochran, founder of EnRICHed Academy and Regional Director of Dominion Lending Centre. "On the one side you have parents saying that schools aren't doing enough and on the other side, you have schools saying parents aren't doing enough - and right in the middle you have young adults who aren't learning anything!"

Cochran will be speaking to a group of students at Don Mills Collegiate, his former high school, about how to EARN, SAVE AND INVEST their MONEY. Basic skills taken from his EnRICHed Academy course available on DVD.
