Financial Literacy Part 1 The Basics of Budgeting and Saving
Financial Literacy is the first step to building financial resilience and reducing stress around money. Begin to think about your goals, both now and for the future, and the role that your values play in achieving your financial goals. Learn how to figure out your current financial situation. Determine your starting point by identifying your values and goals, learning key terms and concepts to begin budgeting.
Financial Literacy Part 2 Income, Expenses, and Debt
Having a plan and taking time to think about your outgoing as well as your incoming funds provides an opportunity to improve how to use the funds you have. Learn how all debt is not the same and how to differentiate between good debt and bad debt. This session will show how you can prioritise your expenses and avoid common mistakes.
Financial Literacy Part 3 Planning for Your Retirement
Think about your retirement goals and plan for your future. This session will help you understand retirement planning fundamentals including setting up your retirement goals, implementing a savings programme and exploring sources of retirement income.
