Let’s find out.

Food is essential for survival, no argument there. In today’s world, learning to cook has also become essential, especially for those who’ve spent time abroad during their studies, live away from their home country, or simply value the skill. Managing your finances shares this importance.

Just as a meal tastes best when the right proportions of ingredients come together, financial success relies on a basic understanding of where to allocate your funds. Going with the flow when managing your finances is not a wise strategy. Even a high-tech kitchen gadget like a Thermomix requires you to add the correct ingredients in the right amounts to create a delicious dish.

To make sound financial decisions, you need to be familiar with financial instruments and have a basic understanding of banking, as we all interact with banks in one way or another. Before committing to debt, it’s crucial to assess your ability to service that debt with your current cash flow. Understanding how the loan’s duration affects your interest rate and the types of interest rates is equally important. When it comes to savings, you must evaluate the available options, consider the level of risk you’re comfortable with, and determine the returns you expect. This helps you select the right investment. At its core, understanding your finances is just as essentials knowing the correct ingredient proportions to create a delicious meal.
