About this Workshop
Navigating the world of personal finance as a first-generation student can be daunting. This workshop, "Building Your Financial Future," is designed to demystify the basics of personal finance, including savings, budgeting, and investing. As a first-generation student myself, I understand the unique challenges we face, from managing limited resources to dealing with the pressure of being the first in our families to navigate higher education and financial independence.
In this session, I will share practical, easy-to-understand strategies for building a solid financial foundation. Attendees will learn how to create and stick to a budget, the importance of an emergency fund, and the basics of investing. My goal is for each participant to leave with actionable steps they can implement immediately, empowering them to take control of their financial future.
