Peter introduces the concept of financial literacy, and empowers students to hit the ground running as they enter the world of earning and spending.

Your Money Profile
StartSmart facilitator Sasha Jovanovic will administer a specifically developed psychological profile test to students. The profile will help students categorise their spending habits and risk taking behaviour, and the results will be discussed as he outlines ways in which the different categories can improve their financial habits. The profile is being developed by a Senior Professor in Cognitive and Personality Psychology from The University of Sydney, who specialises in such behaviour.
