Step+4


 * So what are you actually producing?**

You will be handing in your project in a folder. Within this folder you will provide the following:

__ **Detailed Spreadsheet** __ You will have to keep track of all of your expenses as you go through this. You need to make a blank template first, and then fill in the blanks as you gather them from research. Remember-you must provide evidence for everything that you do or you get a zero. I have provided a sample spreadsheet that you could get ideas from.

__ **Report on the overall project** __ Must be double spaced, MLA format, 12 font, etc...Maximum 3 pages long. Minimum 1 1/2 Pages. The paper must include at least the following topics:
 * Career Choice - Why did you choose that career? What qualifications do you need to have that career? What types of schooling do you need? How long does it take to achieve the career position?


 * What did you think about the Net pay verses the Gross pay? Was the difference shocking?


 * Write about the choices you made as you were researching about where you were going to live, what type of car you were going to drive, etc...


 * Do you have money to spend on gong to the movies every week? Can you eat out at restaurants every week? Do you have to actually make a budget to pay your bills?


 * How much did you decide to invest monthly? And WHY did you choose to do that specific investment? Is your investment a risky investment? What is the [|rate of return] of your investment?


 * Write about whatever comes to mind about the project. Was it insightful? Is this something every student should go through?


 * What things could be added to it? What things could be changed?


 * Whatever else you would like to write about please do...

__ **Presentations** __ You will be presenting to the class using Powerpoint (Keynote). You should include at least the following to talk about:
 * Career Choice
 * How much you make a month
