Plus/Minus - the idea behind: Successful management of money
Even though money is a life-long topic that everyone has to deal with, many of us are still inadequately informed. Two of the biggest challenges facing youths today have both something to do with money. One, the imminent threat of huge debts through the lure of unrestrained consumption and the other to ensure that they are financially fit in old age and have enough to live out their lives comfortably.
That’s where Plus/Minus, the financial education program of Daimler Financial Services, starts from when teaching the youth: The Financial Services division of Daimler bases its community relations efforts on its core competence: the successful management of money. And shares this knowledge with young people.
