Event: Budgeting and Savings in College and Beyond with Paco de Leon
TODAY: Tuesday, May 3rd, 2022
5:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Registration: tinyurl.com/cff-collegebudgeting
Explore the numerous internal and external factors that influence our relationship with money. Together with Paco de Leon, you’ll explore the universal truth that “people are weird about money” while emphasizing that getting to the root of that weirdness is essential in rethinking our relationship with finances. Through her hand-drawn illustrations, de Leon also provides decision-making models that help college students find and focus on areas where they have control and teaches them how to leverage the power of making little shifts in our perspectives to see ourselves and the world in a new light.

High gas prices, a swinging stock market, and mention of inflation everywhere.
