Hello,
I am really impressed with your idea. I too believe it is crucial for students to garner the necessary tools to manage their money and to avoid the common pitfalls many people fall into. The integration of technology has gained serious traction over the past decade, and using similar tools specifically for a younger demographic seems particularly relevant. I have complete trust in your idea but my only queries surround the actual product. I feel like your success will be contingent on the quality of your curriculum. It will not only need to be thorough and insightful into the world of financial planning, but it will also need to be extremely engaging. Finance is not a traditional academic area for secondary education and students of younger ages are generally disinterested in the subject matter; therefore, I would specifically focus on the "games and tutorials" in order to make them as interactive and interesting as possible. Unless your service becomes mandatory in high schools, I believe it will be difficult for you to garner a solid customer base without 'fun' tasks. If you are able to achieve this, and make the platform relevant to the new generation, then I believe you will have created a truly great learning tool.
