You can't build wealth by depending solely on talent and a college degree; the world is full of poor people with great talents.

Lack of financial literacy is a problem of both the young and old, money decisions are made by both sides of the divide. Society has not equipped us with financial literacy, it is up to you to educate yourself.

Sadly, our educational system and school curriculum are not set up for financial literacy.

The rate at which Teenagers max out their credit cards these days is a clear indication of how leaving investing, savings, debts, compound interest, and much more out of school curriculums is affecting our mindset.

You can start to work on your financial education at any time, but the earlier you start, the better. Invest in yourself. This is the most important thing.

Unfortunately, people ignore Financial Literacy because they say its not their forte and leave it to others.

Me, personally being a commerce student ignored this until I realised it late.

As humans, we often learn best by example, so it's crucial for you to get a mentor, which I did.

Find someone who has already achieved what you want, and ask them to teach you.
