Episode 40: How Mental Health Affects Your Finances [Video]

On this episode of Millennial Debt Domination, Katie discusses the impact mental health issues have on finances.The month of May highlights Mental Health Awareness. Mental Health Awareness is the ongoing effort to reduce the stigma around mental illness and mental health conditions by sharing your personal experience. Finances not only have a big impact on your mental health, but having mental health issues can also impact your finances. The decline in your mental health makes it harder to manage money. You may find it more difficult to concentrate or lack the motivation to pay your bills on time. You could also lack the confidence in your career which could lead to taking time off work or loosing your job entirely which would leave you with no income. Today I’ll be joined by Amy Ryan who is a clinical social worker and therapist. Amy counsels many clients with mental health issues who are in turn struggling with their finances. Katie and Amy discuss feelings associated with money, coping mechanisms used for depression, how having mental health problems affects your ability to save money, and much more.

GEORGIA JUST BECAME THE LATEST STATE TO REQUIRE PERSONAL FINANCE EDUCATION [Video]

Georgia just became the latest state to require personal finance educationGeorgia Governor Brian Kemp makes remarks during a visit to Adventure Outdoors gun shop as he pushes for a new state law to loosen requirements to carry a handgun in public. in Smyrna. Georgia. January 5. 2022. Alyssa Pointer | Reuters High school students in Georgia will soon have guaranteed access to a personal finance course before they graduate. On Thursday. Republican Gov. Brian Kemp signed into law SB 220. a bill requiring personal finance classes for high school students. Starting in the 2024 2025 school year. all 11th and 12th grade students will need to take at least a half credit course in financial literacy before graduation. The measure “will ensure that [students] learn financial literacy in our schools. like the importance of good credit and how to budget properly so that they can be better prepared for the world beyond the classroom.” said Kemp during the signing event. More from Invest in You: 16 U.S. cities where women under 30 earn more than their male peers Great Resignation is spurring employers to offer financial wellness benefits A four day workweek pilot program is now underway in the U.S. and Canada A growing trend Georgia is the 13th state to mandate personal finance education for its students. according to nonprofit Next Gen Personal Finance. which tracks such bills. It’s the latest in a growing trend of states adding personal finance education. In the last 12 months. Florida. Nebraska. Ohio and Rhode Island have passed similar laws and are in the process of implementing them for all students. Once Georgia’s bill is implemented. it will mean that more than 35% of students in the U.S. will have access to a financial literacy class. That’s more than double the share of students that had access to such coursework in 2018. according to Next Gen Personal Finance. Having laws requiring personal finance education are important to ensure students have equal opportunities. There are high schools that offer personal finance courses in states without mandates. but access is not equal. according to a recent report from the nonprofit. Only 10% of students in states without guaranteed access to personal finance can take such a course. That share drops to 1 in 20 in schools where 75% of students are nonwhite or receive free and reduced lunch. What state may be next There are still a few states with pending legislation that may be passed later in the year. South Carolina. for example. has a bill currently in conference committee. Now that Georgia’s legislation has become law. South Carolina is the only state in the Southeast that does not have mandated personal finance coursework. according to Tim Ranzetta. co founder of Next Gen Personal Finance. Legislation in Michigan. Minnesota and New Hampshire is also nearing the finish line and could be passed in the coming months. Having such education in schools is popular among adults in the U.S. Nearly 90% said they support having a personal finance course required in schools. according to a recent survey from the National Endowment for Financial Education. And 80% of those surveyed said that they wish they had been required to take a personal finance course to graduate.
