For many young people, entering a university lecture hall is their first taste of independence, managing and taking responsibility for their own lives, including money. Not all students, however, are lucky enough to be equipped with basic money management skills at home, and the majority of pre-university education programs do not offer classes on the subject.
Thus, an
autonomous living experience filled with numerous problems and temptations can
become a "trap" for young students who lack life experience,
prompting them to slip into financial and debt-related difficulties, a lack of
future savings, a lack of an emergency fund, the inability to obtain insurance
when needed, or even worse, fraud and undesirable behaviorOn the other hand, a student who develops early
personal financial management skills can be proactive with his or her spending,
since he or she is no longer under financial stress, resulting in increased
relationship confidence, social interactions, and daily life. Even after they
graduate and land their ideal career, that knowledge and abilities will
accompany and effectively support this student in managing and stabilizing
personal finances.
To assist students in their personal financial management
journeys, the "Students' Financial Management Handbook" will discuss
common financial challenges encountered by students and offer insight and
advice on how to manage their finances. Financial principles for problem
solving, important messaging, and activities applicable to each student's
situation. The authors believe that the book will serve as a reliable and
valuable companion for each student as they seek self-control, independence,
and financial sustainability throughout their lecture hall years and throughout
the school year. the return route.
To provide students with the practical information and
skills necessary to manage their own finances efficiently, the Handbook will
cover several key issues relevant to financial management for students, including
the following:
- Chapter 1: Why do students need to understand
financial management?
- Chapter 2: What are the financial aims of the student?
- Chapter 3: How should students manage their finances?
- Chapter 4: What are the typical sources of money for
students?
- Chapter 5: How to handle spending and borrowing
successfully
- Chapter 6: How should students save and invest their
money?
- Chapter 7: Should students get insurance while
enrolled in school?
- Chapter 8: What does it take to land a solid job after
graduation?
