Managing your money can be hard. How much should you put in your 401(k)? What even is a 401(k)? Will you really be rich enough to buy a house if you stop splurging on avocado toast?

No matter how much you know, it's always a smart idea to learn more — especially when it comes to money. Seem daunting? The Pay What You Want: Personal Finance Bundle gives you lifetime access to eight online courses that will tell you (almost) everything you need to know.

Here's what you'll get:

2. Complete Stock Market Starter Toolkit for Beginners The stock market can be volatile and risky, but this course will teach you how to play the markets smartly and effectively. You’ll learn everything from how to analyze corporate financial statements to how to perform technical analyses. Before you know it, you'll be that friend everyone asks for stock advice.
