LetMoneyGrow.com Launches AI-Powered Financial Education Platform Supporting Student Scholarships

Sep 17, 2026

A financial education platform owned by a nonprofit, built on three decades of wins and losses, and explicit about what AI should not do with your money.

United States, September 17, 2026 -- LetMoneyGrow.com , a financial education platform founded by Sankha Nagchoudhury and owned by Hariom Helps Foundation, is now open to the public. The platform combines an AI money guide, practical tools and educational content drawn from three books. Net proceeds support the Foundation’s mission to help keep students in school.

It is built around a question most people encounter only after they have entered adulthood: why are people taught how to earn money, but given so little guidance about what to do with it?

“We spend years teaching people how to earn money and almost no time teaching them what to do with it once they earn it,” said Nagchoudhury, founder of LetMoneyGrow.com.

Start By Talking To Monet

The platform's entry point is Monet, an AI guide that answers questions about taxes, insurance, wealth building, digital assets, Bitcoin mining and how to buy a small business, with no account and no sign-in required. Alongside it sit a Wealth Snapshot tool, a Financial Foundation Checklist, a business simulator, a directory of business listings and third-party professionals, and a library of strategy guides. Core tools are free to use; advanced modeling sits behind a paid tier.

The design responds to a specific failure Nagchoudhury sees in financial content: volume without direction.

“Most people do not have an information problem. They have an action problem. They have consumed thousands of pieces of financial content and still do not know what to do next,” Nagchoudhury said.

Four Stages, Three Books

LetMoneyGrow.com organizes its material into four stages: Learn It, Grow It, Own It and Give It. The first three stages are anchored to books by Sankha Nagchoudhury. A Novice’s Guide to Wealth covers financial fundamentals, taxes, protection and investing. The Wealth Engine™ explores wealth systems, tax opportunities, assets, automation and protection. The forthcoming Buy Boring. Live Rich. focuses on acquiring and operating small businesses. The fourth stage, Give It, connects the platform to Hariom Helps Foundation and its educational mission.

Lessons From The Losses

Sankha Nagchoudhury brings more than three decades of experience as a senior technology executive, entrepreneur, investor, business investor and author. The curriculum draws as deliberately from the decisions that went wrong as from those that went right.

“I do not want to teach only from the investments and businesses that worked. Some of my most valuable financial lessons came from the decisions that did not,” Nagchoudhury said.

That framing shapes how the material treats risk, uncertainty, preparation, discipline and time, rather than presenting wealth building as a sequence of successful outcomes.

Recognition for Financial Education and Wealth Building

CEOTimes has named LetMoneyGrow.com the ‘Best Financial Education & Wealth Building Platform in the United States of 2026,’ citing its educational purpose, practical tools, responsible use of AI and connection to social impact.

LetMoneyGrow.com is a nonprofit-owned financial education platform offering AI-assisted learning, calculators, checklists, decision frameworks and books covering taxes, insurance, investing, digital assets, retirement, asset protection and small-business ownership. The platform provides education, not individualized professional advice. Investing, digital assets and business ownership involve risk, including possible loss of capital. Net proceeds from Let Money Grow support Hariom Helps Foundation. Learn more at https://letmoneygrow.com.

A deliberate limit on AI

LetMoneyGrow.com is an educational resource, not a financial, investment, tax, legal, insurance or business advisory service. Monet is built to help users understand concepts, explore scenarios and prepare questions for qualified professionals, not to replace financial advisors, certified public accountants, attorneys, insurance professionals or investment professionals.

“AI should not make important financial decisions for you. It should help you understand enough to ask better questions before you make them,” Nagchoudhury said.

Your Money Funds Scholarships

LetMoneyGrow.com is owned by Hariom Helps Foundation, a nonprofit working on education, scholarships and access to opportunity for young people. All proceeds from the platform support the Foundation's mission of keeping students in school. It sits alongside two related initiatives: FundMyDreams.org helps young people seek support for educational needs, personal goals and meaningful aspirations and EmotionalTeen.com, a free emotional wellbeing platform for teenagers.

Under this structure, purchases and paid memberships help support educational opportunities for students, while free resources make practical financial education more accessible.

“The goal of LetMoneyGrow.com is not to tell people how to get rich. It is to help them understand money earlier, make better decisions, learn from mistakes, including mine, and give their money more time to work,” Nagchoudhury said.

Monet may produce incomplete or inaccurate information, and its responses should be independently verified. Investing, digital assets, business ownership and related strategies involve substantial risk, including possible loss of capital.

Bingo, Tickle Me Elmo nominated for Toy Hall of Fame

Bingo, Tickle Me Elmo nominated for Toy Hall of Fame

Sep 17, 2026

NEW YORK — Tickle Me Elmo dolls, the game of chance Bingo and the humble playground slide are among the finalists to get into the National Toy Hall of Fame this year, a lineup that also includes cuddly Care Bears, the dice game Yahtzee, the ancient game Mahjong and the Pokémon Trading Card Game. The Hall announced its 12 finalists for the Class of 2026 on Wednesday and opened voting to the public and a panel of judges who will choose which will be honored in November. The public can weigh in between Sept. 16-23. Joining the nominees are the handheld electronic game Bop It!, Monster High dolls, the portable, miniature worlds of Polly Pocket, and the board games Mouse Trap and Sorry! "It's debating season, and this year's finalists give everyone plenty to talk about — from classic games to plush icons and other toys that have shaped generations of play. The debate is part of the fun because every toy sparks different memories and makes its own case for why it matters," Michelle Parnett-Dwyer, senior curator at the museum, said in a statement. While anyone can nominate a toy, the ones that make it into the Hall must be considered icons, have engaged multiple generations, fostered creativity, or profoundly changed play or toy design. The three winners will join the 90 toys enshrined in the National Toy Hall of Fame, a list that includes Cabbage Patch Kids, Dungeons & Dragons, Hot Wheels, Frisbee, G.I. Joe and Mr. Potato Head. Some of the entries this year have been knocking on the Hall door for years, including Tickle Me Elmo, the Pokémon Trading Card Game and Mahjong.

Joyful dressing and the trends that took over New York Fashion Week

Joyful dressing and the trends that took over New York Fashion Week

Sep 17, 2026

NEW YORK — Across the runways this New York Fashion Week, designers reimagined spring dressing by shaking up the season's staples of florals and pastels, opting instead for more modern and irreverent trends. From legacy brands to emerging talents, designers including Tory Burch, Ralph Lauren and Eckhaus Latta brought joy back to dressing with sartorial twists on color, movement and contrasts that could easily transition off the Spring/Summer 2027 catwalks and into New York's busy streets. While New York Fashion Week is only the first stop for celebrities and fashion editors before seeing what London, Milan and Paris have in store, the celebratory tone is bound to be contagious. The joy of dressing Designers had a lot to celebrate, with many marking career milestones: Rachel Comey notched 25 years, Michael Kors and Carolina Herrera reveled in 45-year anniversaries for their brands, and Coach hit a storied 85 years. Coach sent models down the runway in party hats, glittering gowns with colorful large bow trains, and gift-wrapped present accessories for its anniversary. InStyle Fashion director Kevin Huynh said designers are waving goodbye to the quiet luxury era and leaning into vibrancy. "We're really stepping into like, more is more," he told The Associated Press, "but not in that dopamine dressing where everything feels haphazardly put on, but like a real sense of vibrancy and excitement." At Eckhaus Latta, designers Mike Eckhaus and Zoe Latta feted their J.Crew collaboration with confetti. Guests were told to open envelopes on their seats at the sound of laughter during the second half of their show and toss rainbow confetti onto the runway. "Designers are really trying to kind of have fun and show the power that fashion can have in uplifting and inspiring people," Matthew Velasco, ELLE's fashion news editor, said. Tory Burch embraced joyful dressing as a sense of escape, with models in color-blocked embellished looks strutting around a circular indoor catwalk that surrounded an outdoor garden with fountains. Burch said she wanted to contrast opulent femininity with utilitarian sportswear. Her collection featured embroidered cardigans with brightly colored skirts, boa-like thin scarves and a turquoise coat with a matching bag. "I think when things are a bit more rough in the world you need to dream," Burch said. Ralph Lauren opened New York Fashion Week by bringing romance and a celebration of style to the runway. "It's about ways of dressing that celebrate ingenuity, originality, and character — the freedom and fun of creating a style that is truly personal," he said in his show notes. Michael Kors had the optimism to stage his show outside in the garden at the Museum of Modern Art, where a bright orange trench coat and sunny yellow shoes popped against his black and white looks. Thom Browne, who often leans into whimsy, created a show inspired by "A Bug's Life," with a giant indoor garden and models dripping in green crystals that hung from layered suiting. Some channeled actual ladybugs and butterflies with giant colorful hoop skirts, and jackets that looked like cocoons, eliciting smiles from the crowd. Collections filled with shades of blue Designers may not be feeling blue this season, but the color was certainly interwoven throughout their collections. Ralph Lauren played with a palette of blues — from his classic denim to satin and lace gowns, to suiting and blue fur and feather collars. Tommy Hilfiger said he often takes his inspiration from nautical flags, so primary colors — including navy — were prevalent on classic and oversized blazers and rugby shirt stripes on his runway at The Plaza Hotel. Tory Burch styled turquoise and navy, and Henry Zankov delivered teal on the runway this season for Diane von Furstenberg. After a decade-long gap, the Diane von Furstenberg line returned to New York Fashion Week with Zankov unveiling his first collection as artistic director for the brand. Known for his namesake knitwear brand, Zankov highlighted animal prints on von Furstenberg's signature wrap designs, while incorporating sheer blouses and dresses along with fluid suiting. "You want to feel alive," Huynh said, "like we're coming out of the cold of winter, and color is such an easy way to accomplish that." "Chartreuse had its moment, but teal is something that feels really refined," he added. Cobalt blue or Klein Blue — made famous by artist Yves Klein — also took over the runways with Proenza Schouler and Sergio Hudson including the color in their collections. Accentuating the waist All eyes were on waistlines this season as designers sent models down runways in cummerbunds, scarves and chunky belts. For Daniella Kallmeyer of Kallmeyer, the designer added a cummerbund to a buttoned-down blue top over trousers, as well as a white cummerbund embellished with white beading over an all-black suited look. "It's that injection of androgyny with a cummerbund in womenswear that feels exciting and edgy," Huynh said. At Ralph Lauren, the designer wrapped fringed scarves around the models to break up an all-white look or add a pop of color to the waistline. Fringing out After shedding the constraints of winter coats and layers, designers introduced a freedom of movement and fluidity to their collections with fringe. Asymmetrical dresses swayed with fringe at Jonathan Simkhai while shimmering fringe peeked out from an all-black look at Rachel Comey. In a twist on tailoring, jackets dripping with fringe made their way down the runway at Monse. "I always am a firm believer that with the Spring/Summer shows, designers really flex their prowess a little bit more than fall," Huynh said. "You're really getting the full spectrum of a woman and a man's wardrobe."
