Personal finance is one of the most important skills you'll ever build — yet most of us never receive any formal education in it. This course is designed to change that, giving you a genuinely comprehensive, practice-based foundation across every major area of personal financial life.

Through 6 comprehensive practice tests totaling 600 carefully written questions, you'll work through the full arc of personal finance: starting with foundational money mindset and behavioral finance, moving into practical budgeting systems and cash flow management, advancing through debt payoff strategies and credit building, and finishing with saving, investing, retirement planning, insurance, and tax fundamentals.

This isn't a course of disconnected trivia. Each test builds on concepts from the ones before it, and every single question comes with a detailed explanation — so whether you answer correctly or not, you'll walk away with a deeper, more precise understanding of the underlying concept.

You'll explore topics including:

Budgeting methods like 50/30/20, zero-based budgeting, and the envelope system
Debt payoff strategies including the snowball and avalanche methods, plus credit score fundamentals
Compound interest, savings account types, and emergency fund planning
Investing basics, 401(k)s and IRAs, and retirement withdrawal strategies
Insurance essentials and tax planning strategies for real-world financial decisions

Whether you're just starting your financial journey, working to pay off debt, or planning for retirement, this course gives you a comprehensive, practical foundation — with the repetition and explanation needed to make the concepts genuinely stick.
