TALK MONEY WEEK 2025 SERIES:
Money Talks - Are You Listening? 10 Lessons for Students & Professionals👩💼🗣️


What's happening?
Money can feel personal, complex, or even awkward to talk about — but the truth is, silence costs us more than we realise.
As Talk Money Week 2025 begins (11–15 November), it’s the perfect moment to rethink how we engage with money — whether you’re a student figuring out your first budget or a professional navigating pay rises, pensions, and planning for the future.
At GenMoney, we believe financial confidence isn’t a personality trait — it’s a learned skill.
This week, we’re inviting you to start ten real money conversations that matter — from understanding your payslip to connecting money with your mental health, and from learning your money personality to building confidence one decision at a time.
Because when we talk about money openly, we unlock opportunities: to learn, to grow, and to take control.
So this Talk Money Week, start one conversation that could change your financial story — with a friend, a colleague, your employer, or even yourself.
Your Takeaway
💷 Know Your Worth: Understand your pay, your benefits, and your rights — confidence starts with clarity.
📊 Budget with Purpose: Not just numbers — align your spending with what truly matters to you.
🏦 Decode Your Payslip: Tax codes, pensions, deductions — learn what each line means.
📈 Start Where You Are: You don’t need wealth to start — just a plan and consistency.
💬 Make Money Talk Normal: Talk about salary, saving, and spending without shame.
🏠 Dream Big, Plan Small: Whether it’s your first home or debt-free living, break goals into micro-steps.
🧠 Connect Money & Mental Health: Stress and spending are linked — managing one helps manage the other.
📚 Learn Your Money Personality: Are you a spender, saver, planner, or worrier? Awareness is power.
💡 Build Financial Confidence: Confidence isn’t knowledge — it’s practice. Small wins build belief.
🌍 Money with Meaning: Think about impact — how your money choices shape your future and your world.
