financial literacy.
As you will see later, the ability to earn a lot does not mean a comfortable life. If a person earns money
only with the help of certain skills (music, medical education), then this is not enough. The ability to
manage earned money requires completely new skills and knowledge - and it is this that can lead you to
financial independence.
We are not taught how to manage personal money at school and even at the university - and this is the
biggest omission both for any state and for you and me. We face money issues several times a day and
at the same time do not understand at all what money is and how to become a financially wealthy
person. Moreover, if you ask almost any person what a financially wealthy person is, the answer will be
the same: "The one who has a car and a good home."
On our course, you will understand that this is an incorrect definition of a wealthy person for many
reasons and you will learn what kind of thinking you need to develop in yourself in order to achieve a
stable financial position after a few years, or at least acquire some habits that will help you save wisely
and not waste money. ...
