Rationale

TurboTax is a tax preparation software and service, not a content-driven personal finance education platform. While it offers some resources like "Tax tips & videos" and a "TurboTax Blog," its primary function is to help users file their taxes, not to provide comprehensive financial education across various categories like investing, economy, or crypto in a content library format. None of the must-have features for a financial education platform are present.
