Hi. Thank you so much for visiting Economic Rockstar. My name is Frank Conway, founder of Economic Rockstar, and I am dedicated in providing you with great resources and insightful information about economic-related content.
Having worked in education for over sixteen years, teaching economics, statistics, finance and financial derivatives at post-graduate level, I decided to use my experience in a new and different way.
I have noticed a huge transitional shift in education, both technological and demographic. Online learning is growing exponentially and more people are returning to education to improve their skills or to make a pivotal change in their career. I have seen evidence of this first hand, particularly since 2010.
I have a strong belief that education, including self-education, is key to unlocking your minds potential. Education should be an on-going and continuous feature in your life.
My passion is to help you in your journey to reach your educational goals and I hope that you can resonate with Mark Twain when he said:
“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing you can do is keep your mind young”
Mark Twain

Here’s How Economic Rockstar Can Help You Expand Your Knowledge
I totally agree with Seth Godin that we have entered the initial phase of a great Connection Economy, which “builds on who you know, what you know and how that knowledge influences your connections”.
Economic Rockstar is providing a platform for you to do just that – to connect with like-minded people and to expand your knowledge – all with your needs in mind.
“The basic economic resource – the means of production – is no longer capital, nor natural resources, nor labor. It is and will be knowledge”
Peter Drucker
