Young adults aged 16 to 27 face depleted bank accounts by the middle of the month as Kupferdächle Pforzheim launches a free financial workshop to address early budgeting hurdles.
The sessions target young people managing their first apartment, first job, and complex insurance contracts. Kupferdächle Pforzheim reported that personal finance often appears more complicated than necessary, prompting the organization to host the practical training sessions.
- Workshops run on Thursdays from 18:00 to 19:15, with Part 1 scheduled for November 19 and Part 2 on November 26.
- Instruction covers tracking expenses, understanding rent, insurance, installment purchases, and taking initial steps toward investing.
- Participation is free with no prior knowledge required, though registration including age is mandatory via info[at]kupferdaechle.de.
Robert Nothhelfer leads the workshops after building an extensive background in banking, economics, and corporate finance. Kupferdächle Pforzheim said that Nothhelfer completed a bank training program and studied economics before holding management roles in finance and accounting for major firms including Bertelsmann and Lidl.
Nothhelfer currently serves as a professor at HS Pforzheim.
The curriculum divides financial education into two sequential evening events. Part 1 on Thursday, November 19, focuses on understanding basic finances and developing personal saving habits.
Part 2 on Thursday, November 26, examines suitable saving vehicles and investment forms tailored for young earners. Attendees may participate in individual sessions or complete the entire two-part program.
Registration remains open for participants between 16 and 27 years old who contact organizers with their age.
