Overview

What you will learn

Unsure of how to invest your money? Whether to rent or buy? Or which career path is right for you? We've all asked ourselves these questions, and it seems that everywhere you turn — the TV, radio, financial advisors, friends, and family — someone has an answer.

In this free video course we turn down the noise to bring you sound advice. With two seasoned economists as your guides, you’ll walk through what everyone needs to know about personal finance.

And, since this course is meant to be as helpful as possible to the MRU community, we want to hear from you! Let us know what questions you have or vote on topics submitted by others. Your submission may be the topic of a future video!

There are no prerequisites to this course and it is accessible to a beginner.
