Start where it hurts.
You don't need a curriculum — you need an answer. Pick the situation that sounds like yours.
“My paycheck is smaller than I expected.”
Welcome to taxes. Learn where the money went, what W-2 vs 1099 means, and why your refund isn't a gift.
Start with Taxes 101
“Everyone says start investing early. How?”
The 401(k) match is free money, Roth vs traditional is one question, and compounding rewards you for starting now.
Start with Retirement & 401(k)
“I'm about to take on a loan.”
Car, student, or personal — learn what APR really costs, how amortization works, and the red flags that scream predatory.
Start with Borrowing & Loans
