As a substitute teacher I am often asked about where I went to college and more. It is a great opportunity to discuss the costs of college and how saving and financial planning can contribute to make college a reality. Many of the students are thinking short term when they really need to take in the big picture as they make college-related decisions. Teaching these components of financial literacy helps educate them to make the strong long-term decisions.
In the business classes I have substituted in I can share my experiences in starting a family business. The range of financial decisions that we needed to make and how financial planning helped us succeed. It is a great opportunity to share how the financial decisions we make every day can affect us long-term.
