Capital One and Consumer Action Launch MoneyWi$e Website

The launch of the new MoneyWi$e website reinforces Capital One and Consumer Actions joint investment in financial education. MoneyWi$e is the first program of its kind to combine free, multilingual financial education materials with community training and seminars for consumers at all income levels. MoneyWi$e topics include understanding and building good credit, basic money management, banking basics, talking to teens about money, and understanding the pros and cons of bankruptcy. Factsheets for each topic are all on the website, as well as teaching tools for community-based organizations interested in presenting the information to their constituents.
