The Thrifty Scot: University Students Struggle With Financial Matters

November 02, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
The Thrifty Scot proudly announces The Student Finance Guide, an important new resource to help university students and those looking to attend university manage their finances. The majority of students at university struggle in some way with their finances, whether related to lack of money, over spending, or taking on debt. The Student Finance Guide is specially designed to address all of those common issues and more.

“Financial mistakes made during university years can have long lasting effects that follow students well into adulthood, so it is critical to master financial matters from the beginning,” says Peter Kenny.

“If these matters are not handled properly at the start, students can find themselves burdened with large amounts of debt, dealing with poor credit ratings, and struggling simply to pay living expenses.”

The Student Finance Guide provides key financial information for students, including:

Don’t Be A Student Sheep – Stay out of debt
Do Your Research – What does university really cost?
Manage Your Money – Keep a budget and a social life
Make Informed Decisions – Banks, overdrafts, credit cards
Earn A Crust – Work, study, and balance
Communication – It is not foolish to ask for help

Peter Kenny is a financial professional with 10 years of experience helping others learn to properly manage their finances. His expertise is widely recognized, and the lessons in The Student Finance Guide are noted for being practical and understandable for any student.
