 Conclusion

1. What did you like about this unit? What did you not like?
I like the way that this unit teach us how to manage your money, and I didn’t like the

food section because I think its bad idea to make diet.

2. What did you learn (give 2 specific examples)?

I learned what financing is and I didn’t know that you can finance a used car.

I learned that I can buy a house easily by mortgaging, and how mortgage works.

3. Did your view on budgeting and finances change after completing the project? In what
ways? My views changed after this unit about buying a house. I’ve thought that you need
lot of money to buy a house, but now I know that you can easily pay for house monthly.
4. What are two suggestions that you would give to someone who is starting to manage
their own money? When you start getting paid don’t get yourself to a lot of debt and
make budget table for your income, so you can make good decision about spending your
money.
