Last month we went to JA Finance World to learn life lessons in managing money. For those who went, it was a great opportunity to get a glimpse into the responsibilities of real life... dealing with family, work and BILLS! Hopefully it gave you a better insight into; #1 appreciating your family for all the hard work they go through to take care of you, #2 not rushing through your childhood (because you'll be grown with lots of responsiblity soon enough), and #3 concentrating on doing well in school and in life to ensure you don't end up like some of you did on the trip... single with 2 or 3 kids making $19,000 a year!
Your Assignment: Write AT LEAST 4 COMPLETE AND WELL-WRITTEN sentences about YOUR GOALS and WHAT YOU WANT TO DO when you're older. You can write about where you hope to go to school (college) and what career you'd like to have, etc. Your comment is due no later than Friday at 3:30 pm.
Oh, and take a look at the slide show below!

I have two main goals for the future, my first goal is to graduate colledge with a criminal justic degree. My second goal is to become a police officer.

So my back up plan is to become a math teacher. It still does not pay much but its still helping people.

One of my main goals in life is to graduate college.
