This study aims to provide an overview using an explanaotry quantitative approach. The main data in this study were taken using a questionnaire distributed to students at SMP 11 Malang as many as 85 samples. Data processing uses the help of SMART-PLS statistical applications and the structural equation model-partial least square approach. Of the three direct tests, two hypotheses were accepted and one hypothesis was rejected. Self-control variables do not have a positive and significant effect on financial literacy. However, the self-control variable on lifestyle and lifestyle variables on financial literacy have a positive and significant effect.
