Finance Games – A Fun Way to Learn Finance
In the age of juniorpreneurs, child millionaires and students who own startups, struggling to visualise your future is perfectly acceptable. Regardless of what your future plans are, money matters will always matter. Unless we raise a petition to bring back the barter system. Who’s in?
Until that happens, let’s take a step towards our successful future by becoming financially literate. Feel like you’re too young to learn finance?
