Microeconomía, Macroeconomía y Finanzas Personales
La microeconomía estudia las decisiones individuales y los mercados; la macroeconomía estudia la economía en su conjunto (PIB, inflación). Las finanzas personales aplican estos conceptos a tu propio dinero.
Ejemplo: La oferta y la demanda (micro) determinan el precio de un producto; la inflación (macro) sube los precios en general; hacer un presupuesto y ahorrar (finanzas personales) te ayudan a planear.
