Anya Kamenetz, author of the bestseller "Generation Debt" and expert on the finances of twentysomethings thinks young people don't know enough about money. In fact, they don't even know who to ask. In response to this lack of credible financial advisers, Anya decided to offer her services directly to people, setting up shop on the street for anyone that might be interested in soliciting her advice.

@Brendan_M: I definitely see what you're saying. The guy was in a situation where he was facing $50,000 of debt to finish school, so it's a big risk either way.

I do agree that not enough of us are financially savvy...if that's the term to use. It's not directly taught in schools (how to handle money, prepare taxes, credit, interest rates and so on....) and some parents can skimp on details so....yea what she does is commendable.
