Clever mit Geld: Persönliche Finanzen im Alltag

+
Donnerstag, 6 August 2026 Whitecliffe University of Applied Sciences

Finanzielle Entscheidungen prägen unseren Alltag – von der Art, wie wir Geld ausgeben und sparen, bis hin zur Planung größerer Ziele. Dennoch beschäftigen sich viele Menschen erst mit persönlichen Finanzen, nachdem sie bereits kostspielige Fehler gemacht haben. In diesem praxisorientierten Webinar beleuchtet Prof. Dr. Erick Behar Villegas, Experte für Wirtschaft und Unternehmensstrategie, die psychologischen Hintergründe guter und schlechter finanzieller Gewohnheiten. Im Mittelpunkt stehen konkrete Situationen aus dem Alltag, darunter Kreditkartenschulden, Zinszahlungen, Spargewohnheiten und die kleinen Entscheidungen, die Deine langfristige finanzielle Sicherheit stärken oder beeinträchtigen können. Das Webinar richtet sich insbesondere an Studierende, Berufseinsteiger*innen und alle, die sich für Wirtschaft und finanzielle Entscheidungsprozesse interessieren. Es bietet Dir einen verständlichen Einstieg in Denkweisen, die in Wirtschaft, Management und Unternehmertum eine zentrale Rolle spielen: Risiken einschätzen, vorausschauend planen und fundierte Entscheidungen treffen.
