Financial Education for Women
Back to school in a fun and collaborative way.
A six week introduction to the core elements of your finances.
My
Budget
Create a budget and banking structure you can manage
Our first session will be run with the intention of getting financially fit.
We will address:
-
the ultimate banking structure
-
the five key spending categories
-
setting your ultimate budget
-
strategies for smarter spending
By then end of the 1.5 hours we will enable you to walk out with an understanding of what budgeting really is and how it can re-shape your future. You will have an almost complete budget and the tools and knowledge to finalise it later. Importantly, you will gain insight into you and/or your families spending habits, where more discipline is required and we will bring to life how this can allow you to reset achievable savings and lifestyle goals for the future.
Homework this week: complete your budget and set some realistic goals for the future. Find your Superannuation Statements to bring next week.

Homework this week: Gather details (premiums, type and sums insured) of any insurance policies you may hold. i.e. House insurance, car insurance, life insurance, total and permanent disablement insurance or income protection (you may find some of your super funds have these insurance covers).
My Insurance
Learn how to protect what really matters and ensure you get what you pay for

Homework this week: check your superannuation details to see if you have a binding death nomination on your super funds. Do you have a will? When was it last updated?
My Estate

Your Financial Coach
My name is Kirby Smith and I am a qualified financial planner with over eight years experience. I currently work for Two Mile Bay Financial Planning in Torquay.
I studied at Deakin University and graduated with a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Accounting and Financial Planning in 2006 . Since then, I have completed an Advanced Diploma of Financial Planning and participated in over 30 hours of training each year to retain my knowledge in the industry.
Over the last few years, I have noticed more clients who lack the basic knowledge and understanding of their financial affairs.
I was asked if I would consider running evenings to educate women with the aim to improve their financial literacy in areas such as the family budget, banking structure, superannuation, debt, insurance and estate planning.
And so it begun... "Women's Financial Education" a six week introduction to core elements of your finances...
I look forward to meeting you soon
