In July 2021, SMBC Consumer Finance Co., Ltd. conducted the "Awareness Survey on Teenage Money Sense 7" for students aged 15 to 19 years. The aggregated results were announced on August 10th.

 The survey was conducted for 2021 days from July 7 to 6, 16, with Internet monitor members of Net Asia Research as a population. Based on a valid sample of 11 students aged 15 to 19 years old, the results of high school students and college students were tabulated.

 According to the survey, the average monthly income of university students is 2020 yen, an increase of 9 yen from the previous survey conducted in September 3,015.Perhaps because of the gradual resumption of socio-economic activities, the average part-time job fee was 3 yen, an increase of 5388 yen.

 The average amount of money that college students spend per month is 2 yen, an increase of 958 yen on average compared to the previous time.The percentage of college students who are depositing and saving is 2133%, down 62.0 points from the previous time, and it seems that the number of teens who spend more than saving has increased due to the resumption of face-to-face lessons and the reaction to refraining from going out.

 On the other hand, the average amount of deposits and savings for university students who are depositing and saving was 1 yen, which is 9631 yen more than the previous time.The most common reason is "for the future", but the percentages of "because there is something I want to buy", "to go on a trip", and "to live alone" have increased from the previous time, and the desire to purchase and leisure consumption has increased. The rise is noticeable.

 In response to questions about investment, 48% of university students answered that they are positive about investment (stock investment, virtual currency, real investment, point management, point investment, etc.).Compared to the previous time, the percentage of people who are willing to invest increased by 10.4 points.Those who are investing (83 people) are "stocks" (33.7%), "virtual currency" (16.9%), "FX" (13.3%), "investment trusts" (12.0%), "sneakers" (10.8) %), And the profits earned were 0 yen (21.7%), and the average number of people who knew the amount of profits was 4851 yen.

 When I asked about the knowledge of money that I would like you to teach in school classes, from the top, university students, etc., from the top, "loan / credit mechanism," "life planning," "insurance / risk management," "household budget management," "asset formation / asset management." Was raised.
