I spoke at Metro Atlanta Carrera!

Last week the Metro Atlanta Carrera ask me to come and speak to their job club class! Chantee Gamble is a teacher at a nonprofit organization and what she teaches is called job club, she teaches financial literacy and entrepreneurship to 6 graders. Their nonprofit is after school, called Metro Atlanta Carrera they are in conjunction with the Childrensaidsociety.org the founder being Michael Carrera hence the name Metro Atlanta Carrera. It was really exciting talking to other kids like me! Here are some pictures.
