Although Jay Z is pretty closed lip about it. He is a big fan of giving back. In his latest venture with Warren Buffet he does just that.
The rapper, entrepreneur and husband of Beyonce is teaming up with Warren Buffett to help school kids become more financially literate. Jay-Z will make an appearance in Buffett’s “Secret Millionaires Club,” an animated series about a group of kids led by Buffett as they tackle financial emergencies, according toThe New York Times. The entire episode has yet to be released, but in the sneak peak, the rapper aims to educate the kids on giving back.
“As a team you can put your interest in business to good use,” a cartoon version of Jay-Z tells the kids from his New York office. “That’s what I’ve done, being a good business man has allowed me to help others.”
The rapper started a scholarship foundation in 2003 to help kids with limited means pay for college. He’s also made generous donations to the Boys and Girls Clubs of America and the Red Cross.
It’s no surprise that a show with Buffett’s name attached to it would encourage viewers to give back. The billionaire investor has given away $3.25 billion of his own money, mostly to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and plans to ultimately give away half of his wealth, according to Forbes.
What better idea than a cartoon to teach kids to become more financially aware. Now if someone can just rap this same message up inside a interesting, power packed video game that would be awesome.

kinda too late to give it to soulja boy and terrell owens huh?
I love it. The Science of Finance is not taught in the home because alot of our parents dont understand it either….they just made due they best way they knew how….
Simple.. teaching our kids how to give money back to the government that we worked for ourselves. That b.s. doesn’t grow by the time you retire. Social Security was a good plan back then. The last of the baby boomers will get the small lump sum if there’s enough. Want something to appreciate? Buy a brick of gold.. dont be a sucker.
A Damn Cartoon… I Don’t Know Maybe It Will Work Since Kids Do Love Cartoons & Some Adults TOO.

If the Wharton School of Finance is behind any of this it is bogus as far as I’m concerned. Good comment Bryant. I don’t know if Bryant has the whole story but he’s got one of the major points I try to make! Good deal!
Hey Bryant. I’m afraid even Gold is a problem. The Rothschilds will be eliminating the value of that as well unfortunately. I’ve sold all my gold. It could go higher but it will soon collapse as well. These “People”? want to systematically delete the middle class and extract as much money as they can from wealthy hardworking entrepreneur’s that independently make millions. These people are geniuses and know how to prey on intelligent minds. In order to hinder the success of the “ULTRARICH” we all need to pay even closer attention! Once you think you know the answer stop and force yourself to go through another stage of self analyzation before being sure. This journey intimidates most people. Godspeed.
perfect idea.
Teach them to stop spending money and make money, maybe they’ll have a better shot than us
Positive.
