I’ve stumbled upon an extremly useful site… Really it goes beyond just useful, and if you are interested in Finance, Math, or Physics I recommend you check it out. Even if you aren’t and may know someone in school send them to this site. Mind you that without YouTube it would be much more difficult to implement such a site.
Okay, how did I discover this? Well, I must thank Gary North for pointing me to it. Without his continued efforts to find valuable resources and simplify complex matter I may have not discovered it for sometime.
Anyways, please check out Khan Academy. Salman Khan does an amazing job of simplifying potentially complex ideas. So far I’ve gone though some of the finance and banking videos. While I’ve understood many of the concepts presented I’ve really enjoyed the refresher and he has also managed to get me thinking from a different perspective.
Sometimes we find the material, but how it is presented makes all the difference. Have you ever been confounded by the Federal Reserve’s material? Sometimes I think they are speaking another language… How about a textbook or college professor? Mr. Khan is doing a service to society through his non-profit making all his content available free of charge. Again from what I’ve watched thus far I can’t recommend it enough.
