TALK ON FINANCIAL FREEDOM

On July 17, 2021, an informative webinar was organized by MESH (Mechanical Engineering Students Hub) of Mechanical Engineering Department, Don Bosco College of Engineering. This topic was on financial freedom and was attended by students from second year and third year of mechanical engineering. The resource person was Mr. Gilbert Mendes, faculty of Don Bosco College, Panaji, Marketing consultant and business educator.

The talk started off with Mr. Seattle Rodrigues (Secretary of MESH) introducing the speaker Mr. Gilbert Mendes followed by an interactive and motivating session by the speaker. He said “It is important to do savings. Sometimes we need to control the urge of spending and differentiate between a ‘want’ and a ‘need’” He later went on to explain about investments and its various types. It made the students realize that investment wasn’t just a clause used as a monetary concept but also the effort put in one’s day-to-day life to get optimum results. The session was remarkably interesting and gave the attendees the clarity they were looking for amidst the pandemic crisis.

The students enjoyed the session and felt motivated by it. Mr. Bradley (MESH Chairman) proposed the vote of thanks. Prof Suraj Marathe and Prof Sanjeel Naik coordinated the event.
