Civility Week: “This is not Financial Advice” Documentary Discussion and Q &A with the Directors

February 20 @ 7:30 pm - 8:45 pm

This Is Not Financial Advice is a 2023 Tribeca Film Festival-selected documentary about cryptocurrency, financial literacy, and equity.

Glauber Contessoto gambles his life savings on a joke cryptocurrency. Two months later, he becomes “The Dogecoin Millionaire” and an internet legend. While it might seem easy to get rich online, it’s even easier to lose it all.

Join this Q&A to spark dialogue around the state of financial education and equip and empower yourself to feel more confident understanding cryptocurrency and navigating your relationship with money.
Note: It is recommended but not required that audience members watch the documentary in advance:
