Budgets, credit cards, savings accounts, who has time to read through all of the fine print much less understand the terms and conditions? It is very understandable, yet unfortunate that money management is so difficult. Schools do not place much importance on personal finance, rather it is thought to be common sense or something our parents pass along. However, how can knowledge about a topic be passed along when it is rarely understood?
Savvy Student is here to connect you to materials and information about money management, in the hopes of making the process that much easier. In digging for information we have come across a great financial guide, Money Talks, which comes to us from the Office of Mayor, Thomas M. Menino in conjunction with the Office of Consumer Affairs and Licensing.
The guide, which is meant for teens, should be referenced by anyone not well informed about money management. We hope you will access the guide from the link above to learn about credit scores and credit cards, checking/savings accounts, as well as consumer tips on false advertising, Bait and Switch tactics and car buying.
Let us know what you think,
Savvy Student
