Financial expert as a cash teacher: the way to financial independence for students in Diepholz

The financial advisor Philip Kuhlmann da Luz from Diepholz has launched a new initiative. As a member of the “Geld teacher” association, he plans to bring students closer to finances in the region. It is about more than just numbers and calculations. It is about conveying a practical basic financial competence for young people in order to prepare them for the challenges of adult life.

The idea of bringing a "money teacher" into schools is not only an honorable commitment, but also an important contribution to financial education. At a time when many people have no savings and cannot build up wealth, it is crucial to learn early on how to deal with money. The goal is to teach young people how they can get by with their income and what financial decisions have long -term effects.

a new approach for financial education

The lessons of the "money teacher" is not just about dry theory. Specific questions are dealt with that are relevant in everyday life. How do financial products work? How can you plug a pension gap? What is an installment loan and how is the net income calculated? These are just a few examples of the topics treated in class.

Philip Kuhlmann da Luz hopes that schools in the region will show interest in cooperation. With 22 lessons per class, the students could learn important financial skills that they can use well in later life. It is a step towards comprehensive financial training that goes beyond the usual school program.

Financial education as an investment in the future

Training as a “money teacher” may be associated with costs, but for Philip Kuhlmann it is an investment in the future. He wants to help young people develop an understanding of finance at an early stage and thus improve their financial situation in the long term. It is about avoiding debt traps, understanding saving models and making the best of the existing money.

The idea of the "money teacher" is a promising approach to strengthen the financial competence of young people and prepare them for the challenges of the modern world. It remains to be hoped that schools recognize the importance of this initiative and see them as a valuable addition to the regular curriculum.
