1. Make your community more financially literate  

BY Jordan D. Amin, CPA and Melora C. Heavey
Ninety-four percent of Americans say they have financial concerns of some sort, according to a 2012 Harris Interactive Survey conducted on behalf of the AICPA. These concerns range from the rising cost of gas to lack of emergency savings to retirement planning. Since launching in 2004, the award-winning 360 Degrees of Financial Literacy (360financialliteracy.org) has brought together CPA volunteers, the state CPA societies, and the Institute in a volunteer effort to help Americans of all ages tackle financial concerns like these and much more.

Much has been written in recent years about wealth management services that call for practitioners, including CPAs, to have personal financial planning certification and to come under investment-adviser or other regulations.
