Marsupium's Workshop
Financial Literacy is more than just numbers. Money - it's memory, identity, and emotion. Every financial choice we make is shaped by how safe we feel, the stories we grew up with, and the habits formed in our environment.
Our workshops serve as an extension of the book "Just Stop Being Poor," translating its philosophy into practical lessons for young people. The book shows that money isn't simply a numbers game; it's a reflection of psychology and behaviour. The workshops provide students with the opportunity to explore those lessons hands-on, in ways that are relevant to their daily lives.
By blending Australian Curriculum Standards with emotional awareness, Marsupium gives students not just financial knowledge, but the tools to rewire their relationship with money.
The Power of Three
myEarnings
This workshop shows students that income is more than wages - it is a reflection of how they value their time, skills, and mindset. Students learn about different earning pathways, how early choices shape opportunity, and how belief in their value is the first step to breaking cycles of financial stuggle.
mySavings
Here, students learn that saving isn't just a habit of discipline, but a practice of self-safety. From understanding interest and inflation to building emergency funds, this workshop reframes saving as freedom and security rather than sacrifice. Students see how small habits compound into long-term independence.
mySpending
Spending is rarely logical - it's emotional. This workshop helps students uncover the hidden forces that drive their purchases, from stress and status to comfort and impulse. They learn how industries use psychology to influence decisions, and how to build awareness of their own triggers. Instead of feeling guilty about money slipping away, students leave with strategies to create emotional safety, make conscious spending choices, and align their money with what matters most.
