Financial education - what they don't teach you in school (with Sean Tepper)

In this episode of Shift, I chat with Sean Tepper - the Founder and CEO of Tykr, a stock screener and educational platform all-in-one that helps you manage your own investment - we chat about the connection between financial wellbeing and our overall wellbeing in life. We talked about some myths around investment & obstacles that stop people from investing - or waiting until they are 'ready' - when in fact it is about being educated in this space & just about anyone can get started in investing. The education system does not, unfortunately, teach us about financial health & thus creates a scary view of the art of making money. Sean shares some insights that are educational and useful for anyone looking to get into investments.    About Sean: Sean Tepper is the Founder and CEO of Tykr, a stock screener and educational platform all-in-one that helps you manage your own investments.
