Jack Gecawich on the dangers of apps that gamify investing


Listen Later

Jack is a repeat guest on the podcast. He's currently a student at East Greenwich High School in Rhode Island. When we last spoke with Jack earlier this year he was advocating for financial education alongside Treasurer Magaziner. In this podcast, Jack discusses his work this summer leading a group of students through a series of investing lessons. Well, that's what I thought we were going to talk about. Instead our conversation took a detour as we talked about the speculative nature of today's stock market and how apps are skewing students' perceptions of the stock market and their behaviors. He has a fascinating take on this and I urge educators to take note as this is what your students will be talking about this fall! Enjoy!
