Sometimes, I wonder why schools teach us how to make money but never did educate how to handle it correctly.
Is Financial Education really this expensive that we cannot afford it through going to school?
During two decades of schooling, I cannot remember a teacher who mentioned or gave tips about money.
Well, aside from computing interests from our Engineering Economy Subject way back College.
But Financial Literacy? not even once!
Perhaps this is the reason why most of the working professionals are still living their lives from paycheck to paycheck for they fail to educate themselves FINANCIALLY.
We were just taught how to compute but were never given any hint the importance of what we're computing! Maybe because our mentors failed to apply it on themselves too?
People are so damn broke not because they don't have cash, but because they don't have Financial Education
Now that I am also a working professional, I realized that no one will ever teach you Financial Literacy but yourself.
During my first working months, I did some research on how to handle my finances correctly. Upto now, I'm still educating myself through reading financial write-ups online, attending financial seminars, and applying what I have learned religiously.
If you think merely reading one or two books about Financial Education guarantees you to be financially literate, you are wrong.
Financial Literacy is a lifelong journey. As long as you are earning, you should never stop learning.
And as a Financial Literacy Advocate, I feel like its my duty to spread out Financial Awareness especially to my fellow young professionals.
Hopefully, we will all able to evolve from being
Young, Dumb, and Broke
to
Young, Smart, and Financially Free!
