One Rand Man continues incredible journey – into educational sphere
02 March 2015
During National Savings Month in July last year, the incredible journey of the One Rand Man gripped the imagination of millions. A unique social experiment in which an ordinary South African lived entirely on R1 coins for a month, the One Rand Man became a household name and sparked a national conversation around saving and spending. Just over six months later, the impact of this remarkable project is still being felt – and the lessons learned are being turned into educational tools for use by schools and financial advisers.
