Money Management
The course below allows students to choose from 12 videos that are about 30 minutes each for a total of 6 hours.
The videos are accessed through an online site called "Wondrium". The cost for Wondrium is $45 per 3 month subscription to all of their videos (thousands of them).
**Note: Wondrium has videos that can supplement other elective courses like photography, art classes, etc. to log your 67.5 hours.

Once you have watched all videos for this unit, develop a monthly budget that includes the following:
--mortgage payment or rent
--car/truck loan
--car/truck insurance
--life insurance
--health insurance
--savings
--groceries
--clothing allowance

--miscellaneous

--cell phone bill
--electric bill
--natural gas bill
--savings
--emergency fund (you will add a certain amount to this fund every month)
--entertainment
--daily spending (gotta have that coffee)
Plan on $8,000 take home pay that you will need to spread out between the expenses above. Once done, have an adult look it over and help you make any adjustments.
