Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of financial literacy and income on the financial well-being of career women, with self-control as a mediating variable. Using a quantitative approach with random sampling techniques, data were collected from 200 independent women in Palopo City through a Google Form questionnaire. The analysis was conducted using PLS with SmartPLS 4 software. The results showed that financial literacy and income have a positive and significant effect on financial well-being, both directly and through the mediation of self-control. In addition, financial literacy and income were also proven to increase self-control, which in turn strengthens financial well-being. Thus, self-control significantly mediates the relationship between financial literacy and income on the financial well-being of career women.
