Remember when you taught your kid to ride a bike and they fell off? Did you blame the bike? If your family’s experience with money didn’t go as well as you hoped, don’t give up. Some kids will “fall off” a couple of times before they get the hang of it. #FinancialLiteracyMonth

Peer-to-peer payment apps are all pretty much the same, right? Not necessarily. Do your homework: Make sure you understand the app’s policies before something goes wrong. They may—or may not—help you sort out problems. #ConsumerProtection #NCPW2022 consumerreports.org/video/vi…
Most peer-to-peer payment apps have extra security features, but you may have to opt in to use them, according to @ConsumerReports. Be sure to protect your privacy—and your money! #ConsumerProtection #NCPW202 #Privacy consumerreports.org/video/vi…
