Credit for Life
What is it about?
For more than a decade, high school students across Massachusetts and beyond have participated in Credit for Life Fairs where students learn the real-life budgeting and money management skills they will use throughout their lifetime. Thanks to the efforts and support of a number of banks and non-profit organizations, Credit for Life is now available through this interactive website so that Massachusetts’ young adults can enjoy these important financial lessons without leaving their desks or classrooms. Participants choose their professions, are assigned monthly take-home salaries and then navigate 10 online checkpoints to make "purchases" utilizing imaginary cash, credit or savings. The experience also includes a library of “Money Modules” students can utilize before or after the Fair on topics that include budgeting, credit scores, investing for the future and more. The goal? To learn to live within their budget.
