Students will be able to reflect on a variety of personal values and how these values can influence their financial decisions. Students can also use the "MOVE" activity to explore thier own beliefs and alignments with certain "money value statements". This activity can also demonstrate how values differ from person to person. 

Money management is an essential life skill, but there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to this. We may all lean towards achieving the same results, but the path to getting there varies from one culture to another. It’s interesting to see how each country and their respective culture’s relationship with money is as distinctive as those cultures themselves.

Ever wondered why we act the way we do and make the choices we make? Abraham Maslow, an American psychologist believed that our actions and hidden desires are driven by a series of needs, which he organized into a pyramid. According to Maslow, our most basic needs, like food, air, and water, are the ones we need for our basic survival. So, our primary motivation is to meet these survival needs first. It does not matter how much money you have or how fancy your house is if your hungry and homeless. Once we have these fundamental needs covered, that’s when we can start focusing on our “higher order” needs.
