Personal Finance and Economic Decision-Making

Ben Blau, PhD Todd Griffith, PhD Ryan Whitby, PhD

About 4 in 10 U.S. adults could not cover an unexpected $400 expense, according to a 2020 Federal Reserve report, and this resource shows students how to avoid becoming one of them. It builds financial literacy by connecting the financial system, the time value of money, banking, credit, investing, retirement, real estate, and insurance to the decisions people actually make. Students create budgets and personal financial statements, learn to understand and manage risk, and examine the psychology behind common money mistakes through behavioral finance. They finish with the vocabulary and confidence to manage cash flow, set goals, and plan for the future.
