We had a session today about personal finance (through economic concepts) and it’s something important for students who are studying abroad or who just want to learn more about being in the adult world.
The main concepts we covered:
- What is money?
- Currency and exchange rates
- Opening a bank account
- Sources of income (brief)
- Asset and liability categories (products and services and their lifetime value)
- Having a life priority list / chart
- Essential expenses
- Budgeting
- Macroeconomic trends and how they affect you (including inflation, unemployment, interest and purchasing power indicators)
