It is the firm belief of the founders of Cashflow that there exists a flaw in higher education. Students are learning their fields in depth, but find themselves unprepared for the financial realities of the working world. The reality is that regardless of our field of study, interests, or talents, we will always have income, and after paying expenses, we will have a bit left over for savings, investments, and luxuries. It is essential to shape one’s conceptions about money now. Therefore, the Cashflow Group of Stanford’s primary goal is to teach financial literacy to prepare us for secure futures. |

"The mission of [Stanford] university as a whole is to respect free inquiry, to enable the search to know, and to provide for an uninhibited, robust, and wide-open debate" (Casper, Gerhard; "Cares of the University"). Cashflow welcomes all those who wish to learn about personal finance, challenge philosophies about money, and debate with fellow members. We believe financial intelligence can be taught. With the use of board games, books, activities, guest speakers, and field trips, we pledge to pique one’s emotions and challenge preconceptions. |
Cashflow At Stanford also serves the community of Palo Alto, San Francisco and the California Bay Area |
