Time: 45 mins,
Updated: August 23 2023,

Objective

Students will be able to:

  • Describe the characteristics of millionaires.
  • Explain how sound financial decisions can increase wealth and a person’s standard of living.

In this personal finance lesson, students will learn how to become wealthy in order to build their financial future.

Description

This lesson is designed to get students interested in personal finance. While financial planning may seem to be dull and time-consuming, finding out how to become a millionaire is a topic likely to stir up considerable interest. Of course, the lesson does not pretend to offer a fail-safe procedure for achieving wealth. It emphasizes, instead, self-discipline, planning, and making sound choices—about getting a good education, spending wisely, saving early and often, and taking prudent risks.
