Three Programs, Designed With Care

Each workshop targets a specific aspect of personal finance — built for adults who want clarity, not complexity.

Our Methodology

How Every Workshop Is Structured

All three programs share a common approach — practical, grounded in Thai financial reality, delivered in small groups, and supported by materials you keep.

Foundation

We begin with concepts everyone in the group shares — no prior knowledge assumed.

Discussion

Real examples and open questions move the group forward together.

Application

Worksheets and scenarios help participants apply ideas to their own situations.

Take-Away

Every participant leaves with printed materials and 30-day email access to their facilitator.

Workshop 1 Full Day

Emergency Fund Workshop

฿3,200

Life's financial disruptions — an unexpected medical cost, an employment gap, a family emergency — arrive without warning. The Emergency Fund Workshop is a focused, practical day spent understanding what a financial cushion actually looks like, how to build one suited to your circumstances, and what to do when you need to draw on it.

The session uses Thai banking products specifically — including which types of accounts work well for different cushion sizes and how interest rates affect your strategy. Scenario planning exercises use realistic Bangkok cost-of-living figures.

What the Day Covers

1
Understanding what an emergency fund is — and isn't — and how to size it for your life
2
Where to keep it: comparing Thai savings accounts, fixed deposits, and liquid options
3
How to build toward it steadily from your current income level
4
Replenishment strategies after a withdrawal — and how to plan for multiple disruptions

Course 2 Full Days

Fixed Deposit Strategy Course

฿7,800

Fixed deposits are among the most accessible savings tools available in Thailand — and among the most often used without a clear strategy. This two-day course examines them in full: how they work, how to compare offers across Thai banks, and how structuring multiple deposits can smooth access to funds while keeping your savings working.

The second day focuses on applying what was covered on day one, using calculation worksheets to model different scenarios based on participants' actual savings situations.

Two-Day Structure

D1
Fixed deposit fundamentals, how interest is calculated, comparing Thai bank products and promotional rates
D1
Understanding laddering — splitting deposits across different maturity dates to balance access and return
D2
Hands-on calculation workshop: modelling ladders, comparing scenarios, building a personal maturity schedule
D2
Navigating maturity decisions: reinvesting, redirecting, and planning ahead for changing interest rate environments

You'll Leave With

  • Multi-scenario deposit calculator workbook
  • Thai bank product comparison framework
  • Personal maturity planning worksheet
  • 30-day email access to your facilitator

Program 6 Sessions · 1 Month Women Only

Women's Financial Empowerment Program

฿14,200

Women over 40 navigate a particular set of financial circumstances: longer average lifespans that require more planning, potential career disruptions, the reality of managing finances alone whether by choice or circumstance, and a financial services industry that has historically not designed for them.

This six-session program — spread across one month to allow time for reflection between sessions — addresses those realities directly, in a space designed specifically for this group. Led by Achara Setthi, who built this program from her own experience.

Six-Session Overview

1
Understanding your current financial picture — honestly and without judgment
2
Longevity and retirement — planning for a long life, not just a standard one
3
Career transitions and income changes — navigating partial or full income shifts
4
Single-income scenarios — managing, saving, and planning when it's just you
5
Savings and savings instruments — applying earlier sessions to real Thai options
6
Building a personal financial plan — consolidating the six weeks into a usable document
