  • Quand investir commence à ressembler à un jeu, il vaut mieux prendre un peu de recul. Certaines applications de négociation utilisent des techniques de ludification, telles que des récompenses, des badges, des animations et des notifications, pour encourager des transactions plus fréquentes. Si vous savez repérer ces astuces, vous pourrez prendre des décisions d’investissement en fonction de vos objectifs, et non de la conception de l’application. Explorez notre simulateur interactif et découvrez comment la ludification peut influencer votre comportement d’investissement : 🔗 https://ow.ly/aMur50ZzUtk

  • The Black Employee Network (BEN) invited guest speakers Chantil Goring and Astra Glynn for an engaging session on the history and cultural significance of Carnival. Employees learned about Carnival’s roots in emancipation celebrations, the stories behind traditional mas characters, and the role Carnival continues to play in celebrating freedom, resilience, and identity. The event wrapped up with a hands-on headpiece-making activity, where employees put their creativity on display by designing their own Carnival-inspired creations. It was a fun and meaningful opportunity to learn and celebrate culture through both education and creativity.

Taking time to verify information and doing your own research can help you make more informed financial decisions.
