Yesterday was Game Changers second session of our newest program, “GRAD and GO!! Grad and Go is a four part series of personal and professional development for graduating Seniors! This particular session was built around “Financial Fitness” with over 100 seniors at Harding in attendance!!
For my people who grew up watching the Cosby Show, I had to break out the classic clip of Bill teaching Theo Economics 101 with Monopoly money!!
That said, before we got too deep into finances, we talked about “Mental Fitness.” I invited some counselors of Cadence Care Network, which is a resource within WCS, to talk about their roles and dealing with— how to think about life’s challenges/opportunities when it comes to finances. If we’re honest with ourselves, a lot of challenges we have in life can be traced to good/bad financial management. I want our students to do better than us!!
