Course Description

Have you ever wondered how much money it takes for an American to truly feel comfortable? Is there a magic number, a financial threshold that can guarantee contentment?

While there's no one-size-fits-all answer, this CPE Finance Course will cover various factors that influence an individual or family's perception of financial comfort. 

The starting point is the Federal Poverty Level, which stands at $14,580 for a single person and $30,000 for a family of four. However, it is crucial to recognize that these figures are merely starting points in the intricate web of financial comfort. The true answer to this question depends on numerous variables. Beyond income thresholds, this course highlights the importance of different factors. This course will delve deep into the diverse factors that contribute to the definition of financial comfort. 

Enroll in this nano-learning course to discover the various aspects of financial stability experienced by Americans.

At this time, Nano-learning is not accepted by all state boards. If you are not sure whether your state board accepts Nano-learning, you can ask your state board or visit the NASBA registry.
