ASB Financial Literacy


A.S.B
On Tuesday we had our financial literacy session. A guy that was from A.S.B he talked to us about how we should save money and use our money for things that we need not things we just want but don’t need.
He talked to us about CAR which stands for Clear, Achievable and Realistic. He got three people up in front and they pretended they had different jobs. He said that it doesn't matter what job it is as long as you’re passionate about it. The guy also mentioned things about taxes, interests, employer rights and other things. He said that we should keep a picture of what we want to buy so we can get motivated. There was something he wanted us to remember and that was “Spend some on you and save some too”
After the lesson I realized that I should really change my mind about spending my money straight away. In the future I’m going to save money for something I really want/need. I’m gonna keep a picture in my wallet of what I want so I can remind myself to do the right thing and save my money. I will defiantly remember to “Spend some on you and save some too”.
Are you going to “Spend some on you and save some too”?
