WY$A

Only half of young Australians aged 15-25 think they have a handle on managing their ﬁnances (Findex 2021). 50% of Aussies aged 15-25 say they have limited to no recollection of any formal ﬁnancial education at school (Ibid. 2021).

With an increasingly uncertain economic landscape, young Australians are ill-equipped to secure their ﬁnancial futures.

Each week we’ll address a diﬀerent ﬁnance topic on social media (think: investing, super, tax, budgeting, saving, banking etc.). We’ll provide both general information and practical tips.
