As part of its year-long lecture series, the Graduate School Supreme Student Council (GSSSC) of the Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) held a financial literacy seminar on November 26 at the MMSU Graduate School Audio–Visual Room.
The main speaker for the seminar was Mr. Noel Rosales Argana, regional business manager of Allianz PNB Life, one of the major life insurers in the Philippines.

“The richer people are those who took more risk,” he said.
Students of MMSU Graduate School, student leaders of AMA Laoag, members of the Sirib Ilocano Kabataan Association (SIKA) and employees of the city government of Laoag attended the seminar.
The lecture series of GSSSC aims to hold seminars and trainings on matters affecting personal development and community involvement.
Just recently, the group conducted lectures on leadership, project proposal writing, federalism, team building, planning, management and the comprehensive anti-discrimination ordinance of Laoag.
The GSSSC is also set to implement outreach activities, sports projects and student development programs.
