Queer youth get a financial heads up
by Matt | August 11th, 2008 |This week, QueerCents.com begins a weekly series by Elizabeth Byrne offering practical steps for Generation Y’ers to grasp the basics of money and fiscal responsibility.
According to QueerCent’s release:
Byrne discovered early on that finance fits in the “easier said than done” category, and is now working to unlearn years of conditioning as a consumer, while trying to find the balance between fun and frugal. In the coming weeks, she will share with readers her sensible thoughts about these topics:
- Choosing and Setting a Budget
- What Accounts Are You Setting Up and Where
- Young, Single and on A Budget: Going Out Without Going Broke
- What To Do WHen Things Go Wrong: Dealing With NSFs By Redefining A Zero Balance
- and more…
Elizabeth’s first series is here.
