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 impacts us all and is essential to our lives in the 21st 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 own financial futures. The course will include 6 lessons, each focusing on a separate piece of the overall financial puzzle:  

1. What Is Money and How Does It Work?
2. Banking Basics
3. Budgeting and Spending Wisely
4. Credit, Debt, and Credit Cards
5. Saving and Investing for the Future
6. Real-World Financial Decisions

He has worked as a Private Equity Analyst, a Portfolio Management Senior Analyst, a Director of Private Equity, a Managing Director of Venture Capital, the Vice President of Finance for a technology start-up, and as 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 both the University of Calgary and Mount Royal University.
