What’s it all about?

This class will teach you the essential financial planning skills for everyday life that you likely missed at school.

If you have ever thought to yourself that you would like to save but have no idea how, if you or find yourself with hard to manage credit card bills each month, then this is the class for you – it’s a change to get your financial questions answered.

What will we cover?

We will go over the ins and outs of how to prepare a personal budget and why this is important in meeting your financial goals. We will provide you with an easy to use template and we encourage you to bring along at least a week’s, but up to a month’s, worth of receipts so you can go home with a budget tailored to your situation at the end of the class. If you can’t bring some along, don’t worry, we will show you how to put it together so you can do this at home.
