This week's FinCap Friday offers some details about the latest news related to 5G data and cellular service. From lawsuits to big announcements, the media is buzzing! There are some major differences between 4G/LTE data and 5G data, but does that mean everyone needs to push a 5G data plan to the top of their priority list? Find out about that and more below:
For those who prefer not to use the online Kahoot quiz, we've recently added a no-tech version with the questions embedded in the presentation deck!

Check out all of our FinCap Fridays here. They're not date-dependent so any of the episodes in our inventory can work throughout the year!
About the Authors
Tim Ranzetta
Tim's saving habits started at seven when a neighbor with a broken hip gave him a dog walking job. Her recovery, which took almost a year, resulted in Tim getting to know the bank tellers quite well (and accumulating a savings account balance of over $300!). His recent entrepreneurial adventures have included driving a shredding truck, analyzing executive compensation packages for Fortune 500 companies and helping families make better college financing decisions. After volunteering in 2010 to create and teach a personal finance program at Eastside College Prep in East Palo Alto, Tim saw firsthand the impact of an engaging and activity-based curriculum, which inspired him to start a new non-profit, Next Gen Personal Finance.
