Featuring Donald Faison, Russell Simmons
What’s It All About? Exactly as advertised — your life and your money. We live in a society that encourages spending and in which carrying thousands of dollars of debt is considered the norm. And incredibly enough, very few learn money management in school, if it’s even offered to them. Donald Faison (Scrubs) hosts this special that, with the help of hip-hop entrepreneur Russell Simmons, targets young people and asks them to consider their relationship with money and offers suggestions on how to begin a lifetime of good financial habits, using real-life examples of people who have encountered the pitfalls and snares of credit card companies, student debt and more, and how they worked themselves back into good standing.
