Empowering Future Generations

Helping school students build confidence, skills and a clear path toward financial freedom.

We're thrilled to be featured on

George is committed to lifting financial literacy across Australia, especially for young people who are just starting to shape their future.

He understands that learning these skills early can change the path of someone’s life and help reduce financial stress down the track. This program was created not only to teach students, but also to encourage other schools and organisations to prioritise financial education and help strengthen communities nationwide.

Madd has had the privilege of partnering with a number of schools to deliver financial literacy workshops designed specifically for high school students. Led by George, these sessions introduce important money concepts and help students build a strong foundation for managing their own finances as they grow into adulthood. It is a meaningful step toward giving young Australians the confidence and capability to handle real financial decisions.

George’s passion for financial education began through years of running property buying workshops for adults. After seeing how powerful financial knowledge can be, he became driven to bring those lessons to students much earlier in life.

The goal is simple. To equip young Australians with the understanding and confidence they need to make smart financial choices and step into independence feeling prepared and capable.

Did You Know?

Learning the basics of money management at school can set students up for stronger financial habits that last a lifetime.

What You will learn in the workshop

Employment and Income Basics

This session helps students understand how earning money actually works in the real world. They learn the difference between employment types like PAYG and self-employment, what shows up on a payslip and the responsibilities that come with earning an income. It gives students a clear foundation to manage their money wisely from their very first job.

Understanding Taxes

This part of the workshop helps students understand why taxes exist and how they affect everyday life. They learn how tax is calculated, why it is important for our community and how different income levels influence what you pay. It gives students a clearer picture of how tax fits into their financial future.

Homeownership Fundamentals

Students get a simple and practical look at what it takes to buy a home. The session covers key concepts like lenders mortgage insurance, loan to value ratios and the role of guarantors. They also learn the difference between fixed and variable interest rates, so they know what to expect when it comes time to purchase their first property.

Building Wealth through Property

This session explores how property can help create long term financial security. Students learn about building an investment portfolio, how investment properties work and the benefits of making smart property decisions. It shows them how property can support financial independence over time.

Saving for the Future

Here students learn practical saving habits that make a real difference. The workshop covers how to set meaningful savings goals, why superannuation matters and how options like salary sacrificing can help boost long term savings. It gives students the tools to plan ahead with confidence.

Mindset Mastery

This section highlights the power of a strong mindset. Students learn about resilience, positive thinking and building belief in their own abilities. They discover how to approach challenges with confidence and how to turn setbacks into opportunities for growth in both life and finance.

Advancing Financial Literacy

George believes strongly in the power of financial education to create more equal opportunities for young Australians. When students learn these skills early, they are far better equipped to make confident decisions later in life and avoid the financial stress that many adults experience. This initiative aims to educate, inspire and encourage more schools and communities to embrace financial learning so students across the country can build stronger futures.

If you would like to bring our financial literacy workshops to your school, we would love to hear from you. The team at Madd is passionate about reaching more students and helping them build the financial knowledge they need for a successful future.

“George and Tia are the ultimate professionals. The effort and care they put into creating a custom financial literacy program for our students cannot be understated. The students were introduced to concepts that many adults don’t even get access to until much later in life. These lessons will set our students up for life. Speaking to students who do not have the current means to buy a house means that George and Tia were presenting with the only desired outcome being education for these young people. It was completely altruistic, and I cannot thank them enough. They are the best mortgage brokers and educators on financial literacy that you could possibly use. I could not recommend them enough.”

“Working with George and Tia was a dream! They took the time to learn about our students so they could develop a program that would best meet their needs. They were organised, accommodating and flexible. George delivered a boutique session that was not only informative but also engaging and inspiring. His ability to break down complex financial concepts into relatable, achievable steps was truly impressive. He used real-life examples to ensure that the students could connect with the material, making the topic of financial literacy accessible and exciting. George’s passion for teaching our young people about finance is evident. His enthusiasm and expertise shone through, and his approach encouraged students to think critically about their financial futures. The feedback from the students has been overwhelmingly positive. We are incredibly grateful for his contribution and look forward to future opportunities to collaborate with him.”

“On behalf of Browns Plains State High School, I would like to extend our thanks for the presentation you delivered to year 11 Social and Community Studies students as part of our Money Management unit of study. Your expertise and engaging approach positively impacted our students, providing them with invaluable knowledge and skills that will benefit them for years to come. You provided a detailed breakdown of financial concepts into understandable and relatable terms that truly resonated with our students. It was clear that you put a great deal of thought and effort into tailoring the presentation to the needs and learning goals of our students, something that was evidenced by the sales data you shared relating to our local area. Feedback from students has been positive, one student telling me: “I paid attention because it was about money. ”Your presentation has not only enriched our curriculum but also inspired our students to take control of their financial futures. Another student stated they went home and opened a specific savings account that very afternoon. Thank you for generously sharing your valuable time with our students. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to our school for future presentations. Your dedication to empowering young people with financial literacy is truly commendable.”

“Off the back of student survey data, our Year 11s were eager to develop their financial literacy education and knowledge in real-world contexts. When I reached out to the MADD Loans team, they were so keen to get on board and support our students. Tia was so accommodating and easy to work with when organising a suitable time and even provided personalised resources for our school! George delivered an engaging and insightful presentation that the student’s really enjoyed. The prizes for questions always go down well! George’s enthusiasm was felt by everyone, and his breadth of knowledge was made accessible and understandable to all students. Sharing his own story and ambitions provided a personal touch to the workshop too which helped make it all feel so achievable. On behalf of the students and staff at Wynnum State High School, thank you so much George and Tia!”

“I organised for George and the team to visit Marsden State High School on two separate occasions. The first was to teach the senior students about financial literacy and how they can best use their money to enter the property market. The second visit was to speak with the staff, answering their questions about buying their first property, purchasing their next home and the steps they can take to be in the best possible position. The team at MADD Loans are exceptional at what they do, breaking down complex information into easy-to-understand lessons for both staff and students!”

“It was great to have George present to our Year 12 students as part of their Wellbeing Curriculum. Financial literacy is an important topic that is often overlooked at schools. George explained the buying process which can often be a daunting experience for most first home buyers and provided the boys with many tips to assist them with their deposit. George was engaging, insightful and very knowledgeable with the fullest and latest financial information, including interest rates, government grants & incentives. It was great to have George speak to our students, and we would welcome George back at anytime.”
