Today I cashed checks and deposited my own paycheck. Another thing I did was put extra cash from the bankers into the class bank. I also played the lemonade stand game.
Today I passed out the paycheck to everyone. Then I put my paycheck and my bonus money into the bank. After this I looked at some examples for our Public Service Announcment. Then I played the lemonade stand game and learned to not over buy materials. I played the 7 days twice and lost money each time but the second time I lost less than the first becuase I took stuff away from the first time.
Today was a little hard to do but then again it challenges me for in the future when I have a job. But this job is really fun to do and it does pay well so its a fun time.
Today in class We got our paychecks. I then prepared for the Auction Day. After that I had some time so i played the lemonade stand game.
