The Society of Grownups offers financial advice services specifically targeted towards millennials. The 'Masters Program for Adulthood' was developed by insurance company [MassMutual Financial Group](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stay-ready) and design agency IDEO. Rather than existing as online courses or something similar, the classes and workshops allow young people to gather in a physical building.

Described as one part cafe and one part education center, the financial advice services allow people under 40 to embrace their inner adult over coffee and [cheap wine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sip-and-learn). The space hosts nightly events and guest speakers on topics like retirement, saving for a mortgage and starting a family as well as your next career move. This means the discussions help you reach not just professional goals, but personal ones as well in an environment that's actually enjoyable.
