Two critical but often overlooked financial literacy concepts with entrepreneurial implications are decision making and opportunity cost: Financial education must include decision making skills. Teach students a simple but useful decision making process:
1.State the problem – What do I need to decide?
2.List the alternatives – What choices are there?
3.State the criteria – How will I judge?
4.Evaluate the alternatives – Use a numerical rating or a plus and minus system; this step is a cost/ benefit analysis.
5.Make a decision – What will work best with the resources I have? The critical sixth step is often left untaught:
6.Evaluate your decision – Did my decision work? What might have been better? What did I forget or overlook?
