I think it's a good course for those who don't know about the financial world because it touches on very basic issues related to valuation and shared links are nicely selected to help with the topic, but the contents could be enhanced.

This is really a good match for me, expecially the loan amortization schedule using Excel

The instructor should be more engaging using excel sheet and give more real life examples. The course is super basic and lack more examples. but it sure is worth the money spent

the videos explained everything really well.

This course has been very beneficial to me; coming from a strictly scientific (read non-financial) background, I had no idea that cashflows could be this complicated. That being said, the course starts off at an easy pace and picks up as the foundation is set. If you'd like to follow along through the algebra, I would suggest having a pen/paper ready and easy access to the pause button. A takeaway concept I have learned here is how to derive the formulas for various basic/novice level cashflow problems at hand.

Exceptional course that I would highly recommend to all. Simple to follow along and extremely well presented. I am glad I had a look at this. Learned something that was completely alien to me.
By Parbat Dhungana on 7/26/2015
I evaluate the course is worthy for novice learners like me. The lessons starts from very basic concepts, practical examples and equips learners prepared for furthering to financial decision making exercises. The displays, are interesting and engaging that I completed them in few shots of sitting.
By Taylor Gulley on 1/7/2015
This course is literally how to Calculate the Value of Cash Flows relative to time. Not valuing cash flows in the business decision making sense. He explains everything quite well and does a great job breaking down simple and complex interest. Understandable enough that I was able to watch on 2x speed. Great work.
