Josiah Campbell: Financial Literacy for the Next Generation

WealthWaveNOW™

In this inspiring episode of WealthWaveNOW, UCLA economics student Josiah Campbell shares how a movement on campus is helping students learn what school never taught them—how money really works. Through his story of founding the Bruin Financial Literacy organization, Josiah explains why young people must measure their financial knowledge before earning their first paycheck. He introduces the Financial Literacy Quiz as a tool to track progress and reveal gaps, much like a GPS for financial success. His message is clear: education builds confidence, literacy builds freedom, and the time to act is now—before it’s too late.
