ASB

Yesterday, a guy from ASB came to school to talk to us about managing money,
how we can earn money and how we can save it.

Firstly, he gave us some examples about how to earn money, like doing chores around
the house and for neighbours.  Another example was hosting a lemonade stand, doing bake
sales, garage sales and yard sales.  He then talked about eftpos cards and credit cards and
how to keep your money safe.

Later on, we split into small groups and came up with a business idea.  Abby, Olivia,
Mercedes and I came up with an idea called Design a bottle.  It's when you get an empty
plastic bottle and decorate it with whatever you want.

The last thing we talked about was a CAT goal.  We had to write on apiece of paper,
something that we want.  Then we had to estimate the price and see how long it would
take for us to but it.

I think the lesson was worthwhile.  I think I am quite good at saving money but I need to
do more jobs around the house, so I can save up for things that I really want like phone
or a laptop.

BYE!!!
