Building Better Money Habits Since 2019

We started DevCoreLink because too many families were struggling with basic budgeting. Now we help thousands of households across Vietnam take control of their finances through practical, hands-on education.

How We Got Started

Back in 2019, I was working with families who had steady incomes but were constantly stressed about money. They weren't reckless spenders – they just never learned how to organize their finances properly.

That's when we realized the problem wasn't about earning more. It was about understanding where money actually goes each month and making small adjustments that add up over time.

So we started small. Weekend workshops in community centers, helping people track expenses and set up simple budgets. The response was incredible – families started calling us months later to share how they'd built emergency funds or finally paid off old debts.

Today we've expanded our programs, but our core mission stays the same: teaching practical money skills that actually work in real Vietnamese households.

We're financial educators who've been where our students are. Each of us has faced our own money challenges and learned these lessons the hard way.

What Makes Us Different

Most financial advice assumes you have money left over each month. We work with real situations – irregular income, family obligations, unexpected expenses that derail budgets.

  • Real Household Focus

    We design every lesson around actual Vietnamese family budgets, not theoretical examples that don't match real life.

  • Gradual Implementation

    Instead of overwhelming complete overhauls, we teach small changes that build into sustainable money habits over 6-12 months.

  • Ongoing Support

    Students can reach out months after completing programs when they hit roadblocks or need help adjusting their systems.
