In this episode, I’m tackling the commonly used term "financial literacy" and why it might be leading us astray.
There are limitations of traditional financial literacy and it’s why so many individuals struggle with managing their finances despite possessing basic financial knowledge.
The correct approach is a concept called financial capability—a comprehensive framework that goes beyond mere literacy to empower individuals with the skills, attitudes, and behaviours necessary for long-term financial well-being.
Whether you're a seasoned investor or just starting your financial journey, this episode will equip you with the tools and mindset needed to thrive in today's complex financial landscape.
