About This Workshop

LearnU: Budgeting Basics is an interactive workshop designed to help participants understand how everyday money decisions are actually made — before budgets, before numbers, and before rules.

This session focuses on mindset, habits, priorities, and real-life decision-making, not memorizing formulas or being “good at math.” Participants explore how money habits are formed, why people often feel stuck, and how small, realistic changes can lead to better outcomes over time.

What This Session Covers

  • How mindset influences money decisions

  • Budgeting as control, not restriction

  • Practical budgeting methods (50/30/20, zero-based, envelope system)

  • Saving with low or irregular income

  • Credit basics and why credit matters

  • Planning ahead and handling unexpected expenses

How the Workshop Works

  • Short explanations (not lectures)

  • Group discussions and guided activities

  • Real-life scenarios people actually face

  • No right or wrong answers — just clearer thinking

This workshop is not about getting rich, judging spending habits, or telling people what they “should” do. It’s about building awareness, confidence, and repeatable decision-making skills participants can use long after the session ends.
