Financial literacy is the ability to understand and effectively use various financial skills, including personal financial management, budgeting, and investing. People who are financially literate are generally less vulnerable to financial fraud. These skills also help support various life goals, such as saving for education or retirement, using debt responsibly, and running a business.
