Show HN: Duolingo for Finance
tryfingo.comLearning finance is boring, so we are making it fun with Fingo.
Have also implemented a trial without signup! Please try and leave your feedback, good or bad. I really like the idea. I've always wanted to learn more about finance and this seems a great and fun way to do it! However, currently it only shows information about the indian market (when I click on "try now".) This makes me hesitant to use this service, because I am from West Europe (The Netherlands). I feel like I could learn incorrect things that do not apply to my situation. I would either support all kinds of countries markets, or focus only on the US because there will be lots of resources online that help translate US market knowsledge to a specific country's. > I would either support all kinds of countries markets, or focus only on the US because there will be lots of resources online that help translate US market knowsledge to a specific country's. Fun fact, India's public accounting for corporates actually mirrors the European standard in this regard (IFRS), so on a corporate level, it's very similar. On the other hand, the US follows GAAP Standards, which are different in a number of significant ways. Apart from that, there's very specific knowledge for the Indian markets, specifically the prevalence of otherwise globally very niche financial instruments like chits or actual gold, or the prevalence of insider trading and a general lack of regulation on that front. Although I'm seeing a lot of strong development on that front too. Agree to your point. We would like to support more geographies. This was the first step. Will progressively attempt to make the content better and relevant for different geographies. Thank you for sharing your feedback! While a lot of the content is country-agnostic, for sure we need to customize the content for geography. I like the idea! I am studying math and interested in learning more about Finance. However, the categories seem a bit broad, and it is a bit too easy to select categories which are completely unrelated. As a total beginner, I would love pre-set learning tracks that link one topic to another in a progressive way. Noted. Having pre-set tracks would indeed be very useful for users. Great idea altough I understand stil in pilot or MVP stage?). A suggestion: When I'm in a course, I don't see which track or course or I am in, except the URL. There are no indicators such as a title, navbar or breadcrums anywhere on the page. Right, need to make navigation better and easier. An interesting and fun concept. All the best and may you see great success. Thank you for trying out and sending your wishes! Best wishes to you as well.
