    • Let's talk, how to manage your finacies (The financial literacy knowdge you wish you were taught in school)

      I often asked myself, "Why isn't financial literacy taught in school?" So many adults today are going through stress and anxiety because of the mistakes that have been in their use of money. So, in today's episode, in hopes to be the change, we will be discussing "financial literacy". This is one of the most important skills to learn because it helps create a great foundation for today's generation. Growing up in Uganda, my mother once bought me and my sister a wooden box. This was our very first savings box where each day we learnt just how a few coins could turn into something more. Later on in life, I released that not every youth gets the opportunity to learn about savings or even about anything involving money management in their childhood. I have also gotten to learn that there is so much more to money management than we think. Today, if you're a youth struggling to pay off your student loans or if you need some money management tips, I highly recommend that you listen to this episode. Grab a notebook as well, and take some notes on how you are going to get better and grow in your money management journey in the new year.

      We are glad that you have joined us in this episode, join us next year for more amazing episodes on It is well podcast. 

      From It is well podcast to you;

      Have a blessed and joy-filled new year.
