Financial literacy is a topic that affects a lot of people differently. The ability to understand financial concepts vary from person to person. This is usually due to levels of exposure to financial information or understanding how to apply said information practically. Moreover, why applying such information is even more important. This is because when we realize why we do things, we understand whether the pursuit at hand is purposeful or meaningless to whatever goal(s) we are trying to achieve in life. We can start our journey into financial literacy by improving our money management skills first. We can do this by creating a budget, tracking our spending, and by defining wants from needs.
