Are you smarter than a 4th grader?

The National Foundation for Credit Counseling runs a yearly “Be Money Wi$e National Financial Literacy Poster Contest” The contest is designed to get young students thinking about how to manage money effectively and offers them a creative outlet to demonstrate their knowledge.  The chosen winners are recognized nationally, and the winners receive US savings bonds.

One of the poster winners for 2009 was Jenna Fink.  A fourth grader from Sparks Elementary School in Frisco, Texas.

She touches on all aspects of proper personal finance management, and created an ingeniously simple illustration that anyone can understand. Awesome!

Jenna… you’re a very smart young lady, and I’ll bet your parents are pretty smart too!! ;)
