Money Smart Week
In my life I’ve had several apartments, car payments,
phone bills, student loans, credit cards, and a handful of jobs with full
benefits. I’ll admit, even with all this
financial experience there is still a hefty amount of stuff I don’t know. Heck, I am currently getting my doctorate in
physical therapy right now and am still no expert on the healthcare system, nor
do I know how or when I should start saving for retirement. There is always something more you can learn
to make your life easier. Luckily there
is hope. The 2014 Money Smart Week
events will be occurring April 5th - 12th throughout
DeKalb County. Different topics will be
discussed that range from budgeting and credit scores to eating healthy on a
budget. The only regret I had during my
undergrad was that I didn’t take advantage of opportunities like this. Trust me, the sooner you learn this stuff the
better (it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks). Take a look at the events going on, I’m
positive there is something you find helpful. Hope to see you there!
