Saving 'high on student agenda'
Thursday, Feb 25, 2010 Filed Under :Planet Talk Instant News
News brought to you by Planet Talk - cheap international calls from home, mobile or any phone.
Saving is the top priority for students, according to new research, which may encourage them to opt for cheap calls to home where possible.
Students appear to be more concerned with how they spend their money than many assume, with a survey by the National Skills Academy for Financial Services (NSAFS) indicating that a quarter of those studying on further education courses want to learn more about saving.
Over a fifth are interested in learning more about university fees, suggesting that financial decisions, such as which company to make cheap international calls with, are a high priority.
Commenting on the findings, NSAFS chief executive Sylvia Perrins explained that young people are definitely "more switched on" about money than most people think.
She said: "It's very encouraging that students want to save for their future, and continue their studies.
"The challenge lies in how young people will plan and create a pool of funds to help them finance their immediate and long term futures, and assist their continuing education at university."
Her comments follow research by moneysupermarket.com, published earlier this week, which indicated that one in ten Brits lives in their overdraft permanently.
