Manual financiero: lecciones de finanzas personales que se aprenden a través del fútbol americano de la NFL

Do you have what it takes to manage millions like an NFL General Manager? How about managing your own finances? If you love football and want a fun way to WIN with money then this is the place for you! We use NFL teams and players to discuss personal finance and learn how to set yourself up for a life of financial freedom. Students will learn to budget, invest, and make smart financial plays—just like an NFL team managing its salary cap! Through real-life case studies, decision-making games, and engaging discussions, students will develop real-world money management skills that will set them up for financial success. I hope we get to see you in class. No prior football or finance knowledge is required!! Come join the team!




***TYPICAL CLASS***
We use slides to guide each class in a smooth and organized way. Each class starts with the Team Meeting and Life Lesson of the Day. The Life Lesson of the Day is a quote or proverb from a book called "Life's Little Instruction Book" and is where we discuss things like "Keep jumper cables in your car", "control what you can control" or "you can sleep late, but the world doesn't." You can read more about those on my teaching profile but I believe they are a fundamental part of helping young people become good adults! We then do our Ice Breaker Check In where students have a moment to fill us in on what's been going on in life, any goals they have set or progress they have made on their goals, and an ice breaker question of the week.

Next, we start by introducing the concept lesson by looking at how that concept is used in the world of the NFL. After that we discuss how that concept can be applied to every day personal finance. The students will look at real-life case study's of how NFL players and teams manage their money and decide what the best decisions to make in those situations would be. Each lesson I will include an activity that students can take with them and do outside of class to reinforce the learning as well.

By the end of this class, students will create their own financial playbook, ensuring they know how to budget, save, invest, and make smart money moves—whether they become an NFL star or just want to secure their financial future!

***CLASS INSPIRATION***
After I moved out on my own, I quickly learned that money touches every area of our lives. Having financial literacy is the difference in the way many people live their lives. I decided to major in business in college before switching to education and committed myself to learning everything about finance that I could. Now, I have an opportunity to combine two things I am very passionate about, finance and football!
