Korshub's take
From budgets to retirement
This Coursera course from Madecraft starts with budgeting basics and moves through to retirement planning. It also addresses the mindset shifts that help a money plan survive contact with real life, which is often where personal finance advice falls short.
Who it suits
Beginners who have a rough idea of their spending but no structured plan will find it useful. Because it covers retirement accounts, it is also relevant to people in their first job who want to start saving early.
Key takeaways
- Setting up a budget that you can actually keep to
- How retirement accounts differ and what each is for
- Habits and mindset that keep a plan on track over time
Rebuild your budget at the end of the course using the method taught, and compare it with the one you started with.
