This week you will learn about money and the Federal Reserve.  The monetary system is something that makes each country and the world function on a daily basis.  Most people are not aware of how the system was created or how it works.  There are several videos this week, but they all contain valuable information that you should know about how money and the central banking system works.  This might be the most important information you learn in this course or any other course you will take in college!
