How do you get out of financial trouble and how do you get back on track? During the second edition of Wat nu? we delve into the issues of money and debt among young people and young adults. Student loans, subscriptions, lease products, online gambling, the temptations are great and the risks are also high. Yet we hardly dare to talk about them. On November 17 we will discuss this with, among others, researcher Paula Smith and documentary filmmaker Milou Gevers.

About the series What now?
How can scientific insights help with practical life questions? What now? is a new program series at the UB featuring evenings on major topics that (young) adults face. In each edition, we delve into questions around one theme – work, housing, love, money, or health – using insights from UvA and HvA researchers and alumni. We pause to consider what the science has to say about these issues, but also offer practical tips that contribute to answering the question: how do I survive after my studies?
