This is a part of a presentation script entitled The Benefits of Financial Literacy among

ideas, supporting ideas and details.

There are two major benefits of financial literacy among students that I’m going to talk about
today which are helping students to manage expenditure and achieving their financial goals.
1
Firstly , the benefit of financial literacy among students is it can help to manage
expenditure. As students, financial literacy enables you to distinguish between wants and
needs. To illustrate this 2, you would only purchase things that you need the most and would
3
not spend on unnecessary things yet , you will learn to make good financial decisions as
you have to manage your budget well for living expenses, books, tuition fees and etc.
4
Besides Staffordshire University Financial Services, financial management is an important
skill and knowledge that need to be practised among students for future career. In addition ,5
with financial literacy, you would be able to have savings at early age. Then ,6 you can
manage your study loan wisely so you can repay the loan later. Next 7 with proper spending,
8
you can monitor your spending and have consistency in savings. Chen said that when
finance topics are included in university courses, it will positively impact the decisions,
saving and spending habits in adulthood.

Achieving financial goals is the good 9 benefit why financial literacy is important for you. I’ve
divided this point into two parts which are short-term goals and long-term goals. This is just
like ,10 it is necessary for you to set your short-term and long-term goals. Short-term goals
are your more immediate expenses. Although timelines vary, these are the things you will
spend money on generally within a few months or years. For example ,11 personal goods,
12
travelling, emergency fund, credit card debts and etc. Roger stated in her research that
people born between 1980 and 1984 on average, carry, more of credit card debt than their

parents did at their age. At the same time managing long-term goals is also essential.
Long-term goals usually take more than five years to achieve. These goals typically involve
more money and regular attention than short-term goals. These goals require you to develop
good saving and investing habits. The example can be seen 14 in starting a business, paying
15
off a mortgage, retirement fund and others. However Berger in his article “How much do
you really need to retire?” that students who learn to navigate the world of debt and credit
will tend to have more money for savings, which can help pay for large expenses without
relying on credit, and they can set aside money for retirement accounts.
