Today we started the day with a seminar on the last chapters of Your Money Your Life. We had a great conversation about fulfillment and whether or not we believe that money can fulfill us and make us happy. It was great to hear people’s different opinions on this topic and hear about different beliefs on the topic. After that, we spent the rest of the morning watching the movie Trading Places. Not only was it really funny and entertaining, but it was also linked to our class as it discussed trading and stocks. We’ve been learning about that for about two weeks now, so it was great to see how it was applied in the movie. After lunch we continued to work on either our Game of Life, if it was still not completed or our future plans for investment. Basically, after successfully completing the Game of Life, we had to decide what investment plan we would choose to take based on our results. I also gave my presentation on Entrepreneurship and Starting your Own Business and shared what I had researched with the rest of the class. After that, we received a presentation from Garret’s dad on investment and entrepreneurship. He showed us his portfolio and explained to us his reasoning behind investing the way he does. He also went through all the pros and cons of real estate investment, options, YES, Money Markets, entrepreneurship start ups etc. It was a pretty successful day and we got a lot of work done.
