Interest rates are dropping..... but not on credit cards! 50% of Canadians carry a balance and it is the #1 contributor to rising debt levels. They create a hamster wheel of debt with low minimum payments and high interest rates! See for yourself https://t.co/Af5Ovhhlf4
Did you contribute to your RRSP by the March 3 deadline? If you don’t have an RRSP or any other “registered accounts” like a TFSA, RESP, or FHSA, you may be missing out on some valuable financial benefits — time to get educated!

Along with our many partners at colleges and universities across the country, we are preparing their students to manage their money for today — and for life after graduation.

Congratulations to the eight Alberta high school students who took home one of our "early bird" scholarships. Big thanks to all the students who applied and the Alberta Government for supporting our partnership. We will be back with more awards in June. @AlbertaEd@demetriosnAB
Building wealth isn’t just about financial knowledge and strategy. It’s also critical to identify and overcome limiting beliefs (e.g. you need money to make money) and damaging behaviours (e.g. impulse spending) that are holding you back from achieving your financial goals.
The 6th edition of our SmartMoney virtual broadcast on November 26th focused on understanding credit. The screengrab below shows one of the valuable lessons and the newfound knowledge the 30,000+ students from classrooms across Canada took home. A? B? or C?

It looks like the Bank of Canada will be lowering interest rates again this week... but bad decisions with credit and debt are still going to cost you a pile of money! #FinancialLiteracy#FinancialEducation
Our Financial Literacy Month '24 weekly challenge summary:
1: Track and categorize your expenses for a month.
2: Dig into the cost of your debts and optimize repayment.
3: Sacrifice some expense(s) you could live without.
4: Make a plan and commit to regular saving & investing.
Week 4 of our Financial Literacy Month challenge: Save something this week... whether it's $20, $50 or $100, just put some cash away and commit to doing it every week. Investing that cash will supercharge your savings, and doing so in a TFSA will make it all tax-free!
Our partnership with the Government of Alberta has enabled us to deliver transformational financial literacy education to nearly 600,000 students across the province!
