On this episode, FitMoney External Relations Manager Jacob Wittenberg is joined by Michael Obucina, an Options and Education Manager at Robinhood Financial helping educate the current and next generation of investors. Today, Jacob and Michael are leading a conversation on what educators, caregivers, and students themselves should know when it comes to investing. They discuss the misconceptions, how we can sift through our social media feed's investment advice, how time is an investors' best friend, and how you can pursue your own investment goals even as budgeting gets tougher for families all over the country.
