We are Jack Sherman and Ronen Gorbach, high school seniors at The Pingry School in Basking Ridge, NJ, and co-founders of Capital Compass. As we prepare to pursue our college educations, we realized how overwhelming it can be for young people to start navigating money on their own. Budgeting, saving, credit, and investing are essential skills, but most of us aren’t taught them in school. Our passion for increasing financial literacy—and helping our peers feel confident about their financial futures—led us to create Capital Compass. Our mission is simple: to bring together the best tools, blogs, and resources in one place so that recent graduates don’t have to sift through endless websites and confusing advice. We want to make personal finance, clear, practical, and approachable—because managing money shouldn’t feel like a mystery.
