The Weekly Overview

This week we learned all about investing. Investing is so interesting to me because you can get money for just putting your money in  a bank! I personally don't see why anyone would choose simple interest when there is compound interest, where you get SO much more money in about the same amount of time.This makes me want to start putting my money in a bank with compound interest because I just received my first job. We watched a video on smart financial planning, and saving was a major idea in this movie. I want to save now before later, so I'll have money to spend when I need it. This week we received another paycheck, but also paid more bills. We played an online game called Spent, which showed me how hard the reality of life really is, and how sometimes you need to make sacrifices to just survive a month.
