We combine a randomized controlled trial and the Convex Time Budget experiment to elicit the impact of a business training intervention on time preferences and consumption smoothing of female microfinance clients in rural Vietnam. We find that participating in the training reduces inefficiencies in choice behavior -- particularly if husbands also attend the training. As our sample of female entrepreneurs is currently over-saving, enhanced efficiency implies reducing levels of savings and enhancing current consumption.
