This engaging conversation will provide real-world insight and advice for managing finances.
“Last month, we focused on mental health, encouraging open conversations and offering activities to support your overall wellness,” says Gideon Bett, FSU Vice President of Student Engagement. ”But as we’ve learned, wellness isn’t just emotional or physical, it's also financial.”
He added that students will, “Hear from experts, ask questions, and even have a chance to win prizes.”
It’s never too late to start your financial education and we’re here to help.
We encourage everyone to take part in Financial Literacy Week and make the most of this opportunity to strengthen your financial skills.
