The ASB getwise is a program about saving and spending by a guy called Jayden who gave us a 15-20 min pep talk then introduced us to a saving and spending game. On the white board he wrote a grid in which he put items and their prices out total price so our budget was $1,800 to spend on a trip to LA.
There were 3 teams that the class was split into that we could spend our money together.
We all ended up with no dept to anyone and no credit card bills were stilled needing to be owed.
At the end after the game every one got wrist bands and it was fun learning about what can go wrong if you don't spend and make the right choices. I enjoyed it very much it helped me learn how to deal with money and this made it challenging because of all the choices we had if I had to do it again I would conserve my money and buy insurance and make some better choices with my group.
