Financial education guides young people towards good consumption habits, so that they can achieve better living conditions, and can be introduced from childhood. Through it, behavioral improvements, attitudes and postures that avoid indebtedness are sought. As a partial result of the study, we see a growth in the number of indebted young people, with their name included in credit protection institutions, such as SPC/SERASA, which harms consumption and even their professional career. For the methodological development of this research, a bibliographical review was carried out, with the objective of providing the reader with an initiation to the science of money, showing how financial education helps in establishing a healthy relationship with finance, and should be started from childhood. It provides the mainstay of support for the arguments presented here, the production of Navarro (2010).
