Improve your financial literacy

On today's show we are joined by our special guest, RI General Treasurer Gina Raimondo. As chief financial officer of the Ocean State, Treasurer Raimondo has made local and national headlines for leading a successful effort to reform our state's pension system.

Although, there's another topic that's also important to her, and it's that of financial literacy.

Raimondo kicked off a financial empowerment initiative for Rhoe Islanders last week.
