Financial Literacy in a Church Youth Group

Toril Sudduth
I currently serve as the state youth president for our church organization.  I am interested in supplying these youth from the ages of 12-18 needed information as it relates to financial literacy. I understand how important this soft skill is and appreciate that it is being taught in schools but would like to incorporate some ideas into the church setting while working with youth.  I see and hear about many youth getting credit cards before they have jobs, taking out needless amounts of money in student loans and becoming heavily in debt basically before their lives begin.

Beyond the technical details, the caliber 1.96 is a beautifully finished movement, with Geneva stripes, hand-finished anglage, and circular graining on the baseplates. With this hand-finishing, along with the technical link details, it's easy to see why the movement took Switzerland by surprise when it went into production in 1996 (the link "1.96" moniker is shorthand for the year commercial link production began on the caliber).

It's no-doubt impressive that Omega has brought its link cal. 1861 up to the high link standards set forth by its Master Chronometer Certification criteria. Since this movement is succeeding the link 1861, one has to wonder whether we will eventually see the new 3861 in a standard steel Speedmaster Professional. Doing so would, in theory, involve re-certifying the Speedmaster Professional for manned space flight with NASA.

Really, the only functional difference between these soccer timers and other Omega link chronographs is the addition of a "45" under the 15-minute marker on the chronograph minute counter so that it's clear to the referee (or whichever crazed fan finds the need to time a soccer match) that 45 minutes has elapsed. But hey, if you're going to add link that detail and market it specifically for soccer, you might as well make the colors link stand out too, so that's what Omega did.
