Your Life, Your Money

Here’s the information of the latest workshop I went to.

Title: Your Life, Your Money

Category: Personal Enrichment

Date/Time: 11/11/2009 @ 6-8 pm

This workshop was sponsored by HSBC and the program, Your Life, Your Money, was produced by PBS and is aimed at informing people (specifically college students) about how to manage money. It gave a brief overview of how credit works and delved into topics such as the importance of retirement savings and insurance. I chose this workshop because I felt that this is information that I could use. If I have to do it, it might as well be useful to me, right? Anyways, this workshop didn’t take me out of my comfort zone but it gave me a lot of insight into how credit and debt works. I would definitely recommend this workshop to another student because there was a lot of free stuff and free food.  It was really worthwhile and I might actually skim through the book that they gave us. I was surprised at how many adults showed up but I really liked the learning environment and the panel discussion gave more in depth information regarding credit score, etc. It was very empowering.  This was, by far, one of the best workshops I’ve been to so far. And Robert, what’s your deal? You’re seriously everywhere, dude. lol jk
