While managing money is a key pillar of life, it’s not a common school subject. Similarly, we do not learn how our community and upbringing affect how we deal with money. Besides these factors, our personality and emotions also affect money management. Hence, the way we think about finances changes from person to person.
For this reason, FundamentalCents helps young people understand themselves and their own management style. We teach money management skills that integrate financial literacy training with self awareness and life hacks. Additionally, they recognise individual temperaments and identify brain hacks to build the life they want.
