Financial education and the family budget are issues of great relevance today, and in the midst of social crises involving economic problems, they can help control personal finances, overcome difficulties, and balance the budget with personal well-being. This study aimed to carry out a study about the importance of obtaining financial knowledge, in order to present a project proposal that aims to disseminate the subject to the high schools of the Center of Manaus and surroundings, through extracurricular activities developed by the students of the course of Accounting Sciences of the State University of Amazonas. For this, a descriptive research was carried out, with a quantitative approach and as procedures, the bibliographical and the survey. For data collection, field surveys and questionnaires were applied to these two audiences in order to understand their perspective on the subject. With the results obtained, it was concluded that factors such as income, budget, savings and investments and the lack of financial education in the basic education of education are directly linked to indebtedness and economic problems.
