Financial Literacy: Mellody Hobson at TEDxMidwest
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 มี.ค. 2014
- Mellody Hobson, President of Ariel Investments, delivers an energetic, thought provoking "Talk" that inspires the audience to determine their own financial destiny. Coming from a not so stable home environment, Hobson's ascension in the academic and business worlds offers a clear example of what's possible when one decides to want more for themselves in life.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

So Informative & Inspiring! I love her! Financial Literacy is a real issue
she's such a great speaker. loved her speech and the message
Trivia: She's married to George Lucas, creator of Star Wars.
That's probably why she didn't name drop in the same talk where she says "no one is coming to save you."
🤣 I looked it up, you're right. No one is coming to safe you🤣. Single mom with 6 kids. The tax payer is on his way M'lady
she's the cutest thing in the world!! on top of being a phenomenal, extraordinary, sophisticated, highly intelligent, motivated woman.
She's really done well for herself
lol, i dont know about that
John hope btant
and she's black...what are the odds?!
so well spoken! I need to learn how to present as well as she does.
She's great, I never would've thought she had a hard beginning. I'm always listening to her.
She is absolutely right and my friends and I have been talking about this forever. We need unnecessary subjects like woodshop, physics, trigonometry, etc. to be taken out of the curriculum and instead be replaced by REAL financial literacy classes. Let's face it, when are we ever going to use radicals and slopes in real time?
TEACH ME HOW TO BALANCE A CHECK BOOK. TEACH ME HOW TO START SAVING FOR COLLEGE, A HOUSE, A CAR. TEACH ME HOW TO MANAGE A BANK ACCOUNT AND HOW MONEY WORKS. TEACH ME THINGS I CAN ACTUALLY USE IN REAL LIFE.
Michi,
Absolutely agree with you! We need Workshops on Retirement Planning, Debt Management, Asset Accumulation, Increase Cashflow and more. Thanks God there is an organization called World System Builder with the National Financial Literacy Campaign. The mission of WSB is to educate 1 Million Families by 2020. There are 6 Free workshops on Basic Financial Concepts (How to Build Strong Finsncial Foundation) for FREE that anyone can come and attend.
The workshops are offered at every WSB Financial Center Across 50 States in the U.S and many provinces of Canada.
I’m from Minnesota, and there is 1 Financial Center in Roseville, MN.
Please visit WSB website at www.worldsystembuilder.com.
For questions also message me or email email us at rosevillefinancialcenter@gmail.com.
I love listening to this....I always seem to be chasing the dollar....working over time or 2 jobs to make ends meet... as single woman in my 40's....I would like to be able to be financially secure (well off) so that I can maybe take a breath and starting enjoying my life, instead of treading water......the part about "what if no one is coming" resonated with me, I had that very thought in the summer of 2000 at my brothers wedding, I was a brides maid....and I remember thinking that very thing...."what if nobody is coming? what are you going to do girly?"....and the answer for me was...save thy self)...if Mellody has written a book about finances, I am going to buy it...this has been helpful and really inspiring!
+PinkButterfly2020 go to school?
Thinking deeply about , if no one comes
Amazing! Love her sincerity. Everybody male and female face the temptation of expecting a saviour but the sooner we realize that the only true saviour lies within, the better we take charge and attract the necessary resources to achieve our dreams. Financial Literacy is very important, let's propagate it more, especially among the young.
I absolutely adore Mellody Hobson, I click on her video and I can't tear myself off. #phenomenal
THANK YOU!!!
Yes, as women, we are raised to have rescue fantasies...even Princess Fiona is rescued by Shrek!!!
Tough time don't last. Tough people do.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
I take control of my own life and stand on my 2 feet.
I save and I invest.
Belgian cheers from Brussels, Europe!
A French saying goes "Aide-toi et le ciel t'aidera." Translation: "Help yourself and the heavens will give you a hand."
Love that speech. Its what people need to hear.
there's no helping yourself in a prisoner of war camp when you are the pow. the world is a massive pow concentration lager for non white people and those white people who practice the religion of white supremacy are the prison masters.
When you're going through hell, keep going 💪🏿💪🏿
Thanks for the reminder!
A very refreshing talk. I also wonder why our schools offer electives that have minimum practical value rather than classes such as real estate, and the financial markets. Great point! I will look to see how financial literacy can be added to my local district.
More of a personal life testimony than tangible financial literacy information. I respect her story and I love her charisma.
I dropped a video on my channel touching on financial literacy in the black community , definitely a good watch
Awesome! Great information. Schools need to be revamped; Basic financial literacy is so important to learn. The only reason I know anything about financial literacy, I learned myself.
I wish I learned the financial world at a young age and learned to invest when I got out of college.
I absolutely love this woman...
I absolutely love u 😍😍😍😘😘😘😂😂😂
This just made me super emotional. Such a great message ❤️
Loved this so much had to listen again because this is so important,wished I'd learned about investing.I did take a class general business and what I remember is establishing credit which now has always been good except when I cosigned for a family member and when I was injured and couldn't work
You are a very great speaker your speech wolf listening to, I was blessed listening.
What a wise and inspirational woman. Great talk!
What a phenomenal woman! Great video, very inspiring.
This is more about Melody than it is about financial literacy. Great job on TedX'ing your resume girl! Tell me something I actually care about!!!
She had my attention with her words the whole time. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Damn, what a powerful woman.
exactly.
What will happen if the other 99% learn about financial litracy.
This is absolutely incredible, with a lot of valuable insights. Thank you
Just got here for our topic in financial literacy but I was taught not only to become financially literate but to become a well-rounded individual. The whole talk was so inspirational! Thank you for that!!!

Love that…tough times don’t last but tough people do
Excellent speech.
She discussed the importance of financial education.
I cannot stress how important this subject is.
Sadly this important subject will never be taught in any school, university, or most homes.
We have to make the conscious decision to find this information ourselves.
The book Rich Dad, Poor Dad will point you in the right direction.
Thanks for the video.
Man I just love her. George is so lucky
So good. I love hearing this woman talk!
Brilliantly executed! Ty!
Melody is amazing.
What an amazing speaker. Brilliant talk, too.

Love her talks!
This was amazing! 🙌🏽
Love her....such a beautiful brilliant woman!
She has my attention when she stated that "we found you by the doorstep". My older siblings used to tell me that they found me by the side of the river.
The beginning really spoke to me. Coming from a home with a similar background I understand the need for financial literacy. Today I make the pledge to never be at this point in my life again. You lost me at Michael Angelo. I suggest reading "The Miseducation of the Negro" by Carter G Woodson (Negro=Black=African=Cushite)
That's a great book
Great speaker!
Did I miss the part where she talked about financial literacy?
I love how respectful she is of her mother.
I support financial literacy as well, so thanks for this moving talk!
I love this woman
Amazing!
44? She looks 25!
Daisuke Sakurai she looks forty four, just youthful. Use body lotion everyday
Daisuke Sakurai Black don't crack
Lol, no she doesn't. She looks like she's in mid to late 30's though. She has a very youthful vibe though.
melanin
Lies. Lol
This is great!! Also, take a look at the Financial Literacy Film Festival.
Such a great video and woman !!
thank you for the quotes 😊❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love this!
Love her. Love her.
excellent talk
Here's a quote for you Mellody. Fortunately it is not from Cosmopolitan magazine…
"Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realize we cannot eat money."
-Cree Indian Proverb
What’s that supposed to mean? That you shouldn’t learn how money works and invest? 🤔
I thought that was from the Lorax
So true
Tell a cancer patient who can't afford chemo that money is not the answer
Beautiful quotes....
awesome lady 🌹
Powerful
Beautiful!!!!!!
7:45 powerful
I like the fresco story. Learning how it was made.
They clapped when she said she was getting married. That was the pinnacle of all her success. Just an observation. Or maybe they were clapping for who she was marrying. Causes he’s pretty 😎 too.
That's nice
Thank you. Even better if you said he was so LUCKY they were clapping for him.
I WILL SHARE THIS VIDEO TO EVERYBODY THAT I CAN, THE BEST!
Correct!!!
Love brilliant successful women. More power to her and mere the sheer number of able, intelligent and successful women increase if only to continue pissing of the failures who make whiny comments below whilst eating their craft dinner in their basements and blaming everyone for their continued fails. lol ok.
I like this lady.
POWERFUL
I love her
1. You were Christians. Eater dresses. It was important to do so personally. Don't worry about it. Your maw bought your clothes.
2. I'm a student and thank fuck I've finished. Im glad I've started my job after graduation (didn't use my degree) to earn money.
3. The issues...: what she learned. The girl always gets rescued. Guys who are entrepreneurs have to think this way as well. We all try live on our own accord to get where we think we want to. "any thing is possible" so don't let people get in the way. (I'm not disagreeing with what this woman is saying).
4. I'm taking lines by ma self. High as fuck rn.
5. If you don't take risks... Sound inverters know this. I'm being a dick but Mon no need for the painter dude.
6. I'll suffer in the morning hen. But I'll get through too.
Wow I love that
Can i get them in Uganda
6:00
(you're welcome)
I wish you the best 🙏❣️🙏❣️🙏🙏🙏.
I'll ignore the Warren Buffet humble brag in the beginning
It's okay she's allowed to brag bc she is saying the truth.
👍🏿 🤩
BRONCOS FTW !
i'd read her autobiography
I dropped a video on my channel touching on financial literacy in the black community , definitely a good watch
#SUBTOPEWDIEPIE
she's married to George Lucas?? wow. She should reveal that somehow in her talk.
Beata Calvy maybe she doesn’t want to be remembered as ‘the wife of the guy who created Star Wars’ She wants to make a mark on her own
She was barely getting married at the time of the video. Plus whom she was marrying was not important for the topic
Summary Anyone ?
im so confused this just sounds like rambling
Sad that people cheer when a woman gets married but not all those fantastic personal work accomplishments! 🙄
If we being honest we never had a great president in the history of America
she had to go the woman route, why can't you just tell it straight up, as financial literacy.........seriously that stuff is over years ago , every woman know that, get to the point! no more pep talk
Love this !
