The course gives a fairly broad view of finance, money and relations with it as well as budgeting. Basically, everything you need to understand personal finance.

I put 4/5 only because there is a number of topics focused purely on the American market, which are not relevant to others (taxes, for example) But still it was interesting to listen.

Thank you for the course!

One of the most important course I have taken on Coursera to date.

The reason it's not 5 star is that it is primarily US focused, and the quizzes ask questions which are not necessarily most important for your understanding. Also, the script seems a bit repetitive, but regardless of these minor shortcomings, this is a very valuable intro to personal finance.

Good course, I learned a lot. It was a little repetitive at times, and some of the material was a little simple for me, but I think it was still very helpful. I wish I had this material to learn from 10 years ago!

It is a great course for beginners and advanced learners alike. Definitely completing this.

Very Informative. I also found the course structure to be simple and easy to follow.

This introduction is literally an introduction.

Between the videos and reading materials, some of the information is repeated several times. I just kinda wish it were more streamlined because I am writing notes. I just feel like it could be more effective if streamlined and perhaps include more charts and incorporate the use of flowcharts to keep it interesting. It was slightly frustrating with the video transcript errors... but hugely aggravating when it came to the tests. There were several instances where the answers provided did not answer the question that was asked. It would also be helpful to know when more than one answer is to actually be selected (i.e. "Select all that apply") since one answer is the common scenario. I am one to aim for the 100% grade. With the errors in the quizzes (including a module quiz), I purposely went back and provided the wrong answer to get the 100% since selecting the correct answer reflected a lower grade. This is all due to the errors in the quiz. So, the transcripts were frustrating at times... but to have incorrect quiz templates is an issue that needs to be resolved. I do hope that as I move on to the second course that these issues are not present. One more thing of note. It really seems like there is no instructor overseeing the class since I am not the only one that has posted in the discussions regarding the errors. I have also submitted through the discussion group various questions myself that I would have assumed someone other than another student would have answered. I do hope that these issues will be looked into. I did contact support regarding the module quiz errors. I actually copied a pasted a word document with all of the details. Upon submitting it, the format within the support comment box was not formatted but all of the info was still there, in detail, if they actually read it. They later wanted me to send screenshots of that same info. I did not. I had already moved forward in my course work beyond all of the issues I had previously submitted.

Great overview of personal finance; well rounded and full of information. More than many expect to cover an in introduction to personal finance course. However, the quality isn't as strong and the content isn't as engaging as it should be. The audio isn't the best; especially on Lauren's videos. I think her microphone is being muffled by her polo. I think a few of the quizzes have the wrong answer selected as the correct answer; specifically there's a quiz that has a 60% first-time failure rate.

It's decent for people with little understanding of finances. With most of these courses there is a lot of upsell and crosselling of products. But if you want a decent understanding of overall finances it is fine. I did it with my 15 year old daughter and she understood most everything.

Not bad, really for someone right out of college with zero experience with banking. The production quality was average, too many links to SoFi website, broken links and conflicting pieces of information between modules.

it consist of things i already know. Good insights tho!

describe so good
