In my own life experiences, as a student of economic history, and now as the seventy-ninth Treasury Secretary, it is my firm belief that financial literacy is what fuels the American Dream. My family and I have supported financial literacy around the United States for decades, and it is an honor to elevate this issue as part of the U.S. G20 Presidency. President Donald J. Trump is creating an ownership economy where all citizens become shareholders in America’s wealth. With the landmark Trump Accounts, every American born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028, is eligible to receive a $1,000 contribution from the Treasury Department that will be immediately invested in an index fund. These investment accounts also create a real-time laboratory of financial literacy for all Americans, providing students with a hands-on education in the power of compound growth.

I want to clear up a misconception that I am seeing on this platform about Trump accounts. Any child under the age of 18 with a social security number in the United States of America can have a trump account. What are you waiting for? FINANCIAL LITERACY=FINANCIAL FREEDOM 🙏🏻💚🇺🇸

I firmly believe financial literacy is the foundation for the American Dream. Treasury Department is proud to continue working with the private and public sectors to put financial literacy on the map. But there is much more to do. National Financial Literacy Month helps to emphasize the importance of teaching communities how to create wealth, put money away, invest in their futures, and take steps toward reaching this dream.
