Salut! 🕖 7:00am ers (or whenever you’re reading this!)
It’s always a big week, so let’s get right into it. Dollhairs & Sense (dollars & cents!) is going to look like this:
📍Brief summary of what’s happened this week
📚Point of interest for the week (if applicable)
🙋Student questions for the week (probably a question you’ve wanted to ask yourself)
1️⃣One money thing you/we/me/I can do this week
Are you ready? 👇🏻
📍Since last time, in summary
It’s the end of Term 1 for NSW and SA students and the end of the holidays for VIC, QLD and WA!
If you’ve been on holidays, we hope you’ve enjoyed them (ps. the money diary this week is worth doing) 🌞
If you’re about to go on holidays, enjoy them and you’ll get one more Dollhairs & Sense before you head back to school wooo! 🥳
📚POI (Point of Interest)
Over 50% of students we work with are still getting ripped off! 😡😡😡
Please, please, please check your bank first and also share it with a friend. There is free money to be made 💰
Have a look at Money Task #2, check your interest rate and if you’re getting less than 4.75% interest on your savings account you are being ripped off.
🙋Questions Unlocked
We want to answer your questions! In readiness for Term 2, if you have something you want to ASK - send it to us through the link and we’d love to answer it 😜
