Money and Finance Made Easy: Money can be a mystery. What is it? How does it work? How do I earn it? How do I save it? How do I invest it? Whether we like it or not, money affects us all and is essential to our lives in the twenty-first century. In this course, Travis Callaway will make money and the financial decisions we all encounter simple to understand, using practical examples and real-life scenarios to help students prepare for their financial futures. The course includes six lessons, each focusing on a separate piece of the overall financial puzzle:
- What Is Money, and How Does It Work?
- Banking Basics
- Budgeting and Spending Wisely
- Credit, Debt, and Credit Cards
- Saving and Investing for the Future
- Real-World Financial Decisions
Travis earned an MBA in finance from Durham University and holds the Chartered Financial Analyst designation. He has worked as a private equity analyst, a senior portfolio management analyst, a director of private equity, a managing director of venture capital, the vice president of finance for a technology start-up, and a part-time chief financial officer for several companies. He is an active investor in start-up companies, the co-founder of a finance advisory business, and teaches business and finance at the University of Calgary and Mount Royal University.
