Praxis Financial Gym: Give your money-making muscles that much needed workout

I’ve attended all sorts of events throughout my writing career but its quite rare to be invited to one that requires you to play a board game.

And that’s exactly what happened yesterday morning when I got invited to the Praxis Financial Gym.

At the newly built Praxis Financial Gym, in Makati, we got the chance to experience the Praxis Gameplay and got a jumpstart on how to manage our own personal finances through a fun and interactive learning experience.

The Praxis can be customized to its specific audience, whether for students as part of their class, for companies’ employee wellness programs, or for financial institutions’ recruitment and training sessions or for their sales and customer engagement.

Each Praxis Gameplay is facilitated by a certified Game Master directing its flow and announcing realistic “Breaking News” such as health scares, drastic changes in stock prices, and other news bits players need to make decision about their money.

Why is it important? Did you know that only 2% of more than 100 million Filipinos are financially literate, according to a World Bank study?

This means that 98 million Filipinos are not skilled in making smart money decisions. Mastering money is critical especially at this time when we are faced with the rising prices of commodities and a weakened peso.

Although the world of money can be difficult to understand, there is one activity that can serve as both an entertaining and learning experience to teach people how to effectively manage their money to prepare for their own financial freedom and that is called called Praxis.

“We’d like more people to visit the Praxis Financial Gym to help in promoting financial literacy by letting them experience financial challenges and learn critical information that will help them fulfill their financial dreams,” says Mari-an Albert, Praxis Philippines CEO.

Mari-an believes that Praxis will help people in more ways than one. “Just like in a regular gym where customers can access trainers to guide them on their workouts, here, at the Praxis financial gym, licensed financial advisers can partner with Praxis to guide people and help master money. This gym tones your money muscles for life.”
