Here's what you will learn
This is a great course that not only helps students understand more about financial planning and budgeting but also goes through money narratives and what a flourishing life means.
Financial management is a lifelong journey hence everyone should engage in this course and start to practice as early as possible.

As somebody who only knows the basics about financial management and initially found the topic very daunting, this course felt like the perfect place to start.
It helped me introspect on why I felt the way I did about money and gave some concrete advice on the steps I can take to move towards financial independence: How I can control my money instead of letting money control me.

Unlike other courses on financial wellbeing which focus more on techniques, this course is relevant to many, in asking us to reflect on the kind of flourishing life we want to have and teaching us skills to build up financial emotional resilience and self-regulation as many of us tend to spend on impulse at a younger age.
