Now accepting applications

We're building the team.

Our work was just picked up by The National Law Review and syndicated nationwide. The Economic Blindspot is a free, student-run financial literacy journal, and we're looking for high school students who care about business, economics, and finance.

Staff writers, a social media lead, and one or two editorial board spots. Everything you write runs under your own name, so you leave with a portfolio rather than a line on a resume.

Applications close November 8.
