Teach Students Money Expo is an experiential learning program for 13-18-year-old students that combines high-energy, interactive sessions to educate students on real-world financial life skills.

Through this "Real World" simulation, students move to a new city, "EightVille," and assume the role of 28-year-olds in Central Florida, who are provided a credit score and monthly salary for their chosen education, career and family scenario. Students must visit each storefront and make decisions concerning their standard of living (e.g., a one-bedroom apartment versus a three-bedroom home) and prioritize needs versus wants to adapt to life's complications without permanent consequences.

Cancellation policy

Please get in touch with expo@8cents.org if you wish to cancel by March 30, 2023.
