Finances
Building financial literacy can improve your financial health and enhance the overall quality of life.
Financial wellness is about ensuring a level of financial security, freedom, and understanding that allows you to lead a life aligned with your goals and personal priorities. While individuals may focus on earning money and accumulating wealth, financial well-being goes beyond just having a decent paycheck or a comfortable savings account. It encompasses a holistic approach to managing financial resources, and aligning them with personal values, goals, and lifestyle choices.
