This project is my final assignment for the Code in Place course offered by Stanford University. It is a simple Python-based command-line application designed to assess an individual’s financial literacy awareness through 10 reflective yes/no questions. Based on the user’s responses, the program calculates a score and provides personalized, actionable suggestions to improve financial habits.
Financial literacy is a crucial life skill that impacts everyone’s well-being. Many people lack awareness of fundamental financial concepts such as budgeting, saving, and investing. This project aims to help users self-assess their financial awareness in a friendly, non-judgmental way and encourage them to take small, manageable steps towards better money management.
