Josephat Lishenga – Educator & Financial Literacy Advocate

Personal Notes

Having been a victim of poor financial decisions in my life, I am personally and emotionally excited whenever any effort or program relating to the alleviation of conditions of illiteracy is being considered. I interested in contributing to solutions to the problems such as a lack of planning, poor saving culture, and deficiency in investment foundations. I would like to encourage budgeting from the kindergarten stage, as well as saving and investing for retirement, and insuring against calamities and other lifetime events.
