Stella Laitman
Stella Laitman is a high-school student from Roselyn high school and her interest in finance grew significantly when her mom lost her job due to the market crashing in the midst of a global pandemic. When this happened, she did not understand why because she did not properly understand the market or the economy. Stella believes that schools in the United States today often don’t give finance the attention it deserves. Understanding the market and our economy is crucial for our generation for a myriad of reasons but most importantly the economy is what makes the United States so great. With an economy that is constantly growing, understanding financial literacy is vital and can help people succeed.
