Material Detail

Five short financial literacy activities with printable student worksheets, facilitator answers, and interactive tools. Learners compare fictional loan payments and total costs, examine a fee deducted from loan proceeds, plan money until payday, explore buying power using a labeled BLS data snapshot, and practice recognizing scam warning signs. Materials are free to access without registration. The exercises explain assumptions and limitations; they do not recommend lenders or determine whether a loan is affordable. Publisher disclosure: submitted by StraightSum, which also operates a separate optional commercial loan referral service. Using these educational materials does not require submitting a referral form.
