Personal financial planning and financial-management skills are effective interventions to help guarantee a fruitful and stable financial future. As such, the purpose of this study was to investigate differences in South African black Generation Y students’ attitudes towards personal financial planning and their perceived financial-management skills in terms of selected demographic factors. A descriptive research design was followed in this study. Self-administered survey questionnaires were used to collect the necessary data from a convenience sample of 385 black Generation Y students enrolled at two public South African university campuses based in the Gauteng province. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, Pearson’s product-moment correlation analysis, multicollinearity analysis and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). While the results of the study indicate that there was no statistically significant difference between year of study and black Generation Y students’ attitudes towards personal financial planning and their perceived financial-management skills, a statistically significant difference was found between the students’ field of study and their attitudes towards personal financial planning, as well as between source of income and their perceived financial-management skills.

Osobiste planowanie finansowe i umiejętności zarządzania finansami są skutecznymi umiejętnościami, które pomagają zagwarantować owocną i stabilną przyszłość finansową. W związku z tym, celem tego badania było zbadanie różnic w postawach uczniów południowoafrykańskiego czarnego pokolenia Y wobec osobistego planowania finansowego i ich postrzeganych umiejętności zarządzania finansami pod względem wybranych czynników demograficznych. W tym badaniu zastosowano opisowy projekt badawczy. Dane zebrano dla próby 385 czarnych uczniów pokolenia Y z dwóch publicznych uniwersytetów południowoafrykańskich z siedzibą w prowincji Gauteng. Analiza danych obejmowała statystyki opisowe, analizę niezawodności, analizę korelacji momentu produktu Pearsona, analizę wieloliniowości i jednokierunkową analizę wariancji (ANOVA). Podczas gdy wyniki badania wskazują, że nie było statystycznie istotnej różnicy między rokiem studiów a postawami czarnych pokoleń Y wobec osobistego planowania finansowego i ich postrzeganych umiejętności zarządzania finansami, stwierdzono statystycznie istotną różnicę między kierunkiem studiów oraz ich postawy wobec osobistego planowania finansowego, a także między źródłem dochodów, a ich postrzeganymi umiejętnościami zarządzania finansami.
