Financial Literacy in an At-Risk Setting

Maureen Mark
I am a teacher in our At-Risk program and I had the privilege of teaching a Financial Literacy class last fall.  Most of the students said that was the best class they ever had (because it was "stuff they were REALLY going to use") There was a budget simulation that I used with the students toward the end of class and it was quite successful and engaging to the students.  I think when I teach the class again, however, I will use change the items in the budget to reflect their own projected expenses.  For example, they were not required to shop for a vehicle, shop for car insurance, price what groceries ACTUALLY cost, etc.  I did not get the students out into the community for the class and I think I could make it a lot more effective by doing so.

But link there is one specific series of Speedmaster link Reduced watches link that always caught my attention, and those are the models associated with F1 legend Michael Schumacher. Dozens of iterations of the Speedmaster Reduced have been made with his involvement, and they all boast at least one design detail that's either loud or interesting, sometimes both.
