Money Experience Essentials
Personal finance for Gen Z
A financial education program that shows young people how money relates to the things they really want in life.
Simulator
Users first set their priorities for each phase of life and then make career, personal, and lifestyle choices. As each choice is made, they can see how it aligns with their priorities and impacts their quality of life, as well as how it influences their finances.
Graphic novel
The graphic novel provides an important emotional context for the big life choices that occur in each phase of life. Relatable characters allow users to identify parallels to their own decision making processes and better empathize with their future selves.
Life chapters
Nine chapters walk users through the arc of life’s typical eras and “moments”. The chapters allow users to consider the major decisions in life, all the way through to those involved in planning for retirement.
Results & discussion
The tenth unit is a summary and analysis of the user’s whole life-arc of decision-making. Rich graphics and reports spark discussion and allow a moderator or facilitator to gain insights into how users made choices, and what consequences those choices had.
