On the 27th of March I conducted a worksite session for RJ Insurance Brokers at Ultra Liquors building in Westville, Durban. Our session was on money modular 1, My budget. At first my participants very grumpy, they had no interest in talking about budgeting, saying they were always left with nothing so they didn't have any money to budget for. After a few minutes, they stated engaging, even coming up with ideas of prioritising needs over wants. They all agreed that cutting down on alcohol and other entertainment activities could save them a lot of money and even be able to start saving for their goals. One gentleman suggested a cut down on girlfriend allowance which sparked a huge debate as women disagreed on that point, which was very hilarious. They participated with great enthusiasm throughout the session. After the certification, they asked to sing a song to show their appreciation (screenshots of the video attached)
