Education Meeting
I’m going to be stopping by a bank in my neighborhood this evening when I get home from work. I’ll be talking with the bank manager about a possible joint-venture type of deal between them and our neighborhood association to offer free financial education classes.
I’ve met the manager on several occasions (they hold our association account) and I posed the question to him a few weeks ago. He said they were in the middle of budgeting for next year and did have plans to put on some sort of community classes next year. He said they’ve done some in the past and would welcome the help in promoting and providing them.
Have you ever been to any kind of classes at a bank before? If not, what kind of class could they offer that would make you show up?

Nice to see your blog is back…I went to a finance class at my credit union aimed at high school/college aged kids. It was pretty well done, mostly about budgeting, credit cards, etc., but as I expected it was not very well attended. I would suspect that like blogging, the hardest part is getting an audience.
