This course, to me, was one of the most informative and productive class I've ever taking teaching life skills I am glad I know. I feel a lot more financially confident and prepared for life. We covered many of the financial concepts that everyone will eventually need to understand such as taxes, mortgages and debt, but to me the part of this course that will be most helpful in my life is the knowledge that some people will never know. the course is littered with tips and knowledge that will give everyone in the class a strong upper hand in the financial world throughout their entire life.

The things I found the most interesting was learning about investing and the life game. With investing we learned a lot about things like the stock market and also real estate investing. In stock market investing we had a speaker named Champ Warren, who is a financial consultant and investor. He talked about his method with investing and we looked at the market and analyzed if there was going to be a recession anytime soon. For investing we also started an Investopedia game and played it throughout the class. We also learned about the real estate side of investing. We had three people come and talk to us, each of them giving us a new perspective on real estate investing. My favorite part of the real estate investing was when we went to an apa...
