EMPOWERING YOUTH THROUGH FINANCIAL PLANNING FOR FREEDOM AND SECURITY
October 31, 2025
|Daily FT
In today's rapidly evolving world, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, financial challenges and uncertainties have become more prevalent.
-
More importantly, learning and passing financial literacy to the younger generation has become more significant with time.
Proper financial planning empowers young people by helping them manage resources effectively to make informed decisions in their lives. Financially educated young people are more likely to live within their means, invest in their future and avoid getting into unnecessary debt. Therefore, encouraging the younger generation to plan their finances not only enhances their freedom and security but also paves the way for a more resilient society.
The concept of financial literacy goes beyond simple budgeting or savings. It carries a comprehensive understanding of various financial components such as investments, loans, credit and retirement planning. A lack of this knowledge can lead to poor decisions that come together with stressful consequences. Studies show that individuals who are more educated on financial concepts tend to make wiser choices regarding their expenditures, investments and savings.
Therefore, educating young people on financial matters from an early age helps them understand the value of hard work and its rewards. This knowledge enables them to appreciate the balance between spending wisely, saving thoughtfully and investing cleverly.
Moreover, acquiring proper financial skills instills a sense of responsibility in young people by helping them understand the real situations of the practical world. They learn to set realistic goals in their lives and gradually take control of their economic well-being. This foundational knowledge can also lead them towards future financial success as they better recognize and avoid common pitfalls such as falling prey to unnecessary debts or reckless spending
