This course explains personal finance through common, everyday language and real-world examples. It opens by contrasting banks with credit unions and similar institutions, then moves through savings and checking accounts, card payments, loans and the less glamorous topics of payroll taxes and insurance.
It suits teens and young adults getting their first grip on how the pieces fit together, and it also works as a refresher for adults about to take out credit, buy a first home or start a small business. Its tone is conversational, so it does not assume maths or finance experience.
Keep the note sheets the course provides for each lesson, and add your own examples to them as you go.
