The snow postponed us for a day but we were able to participate in the "Get A Life" program today inCharles Town WV. The program was sponsored by The Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce, it is a financial education program by The West Virginia State Treasurer John D. Perdue, developed by Fairmont State University GEAR UP.
Students are given a "Who Am I?" Life Card that tells them what their occupation is, what kind of family they have, and how much they will make monthly after taxes, child care, child support and other miscellaneous expenses. In the first phase, none of them seem to have had any interest in pursuing a post-secondary education and have had to settle for whatever job they can get. The Careers are representative of real jobs that may be available in WV, as are the salaries.
They received an expense ledger to keep track of their funds, starting with their monthly salary. They are given a checklist of things they have to have
They start at Reality Realty and choose a home with the requirements for their family situation, they ranged from $19,000 to $1.6M (really) They recorded the house payment. They then moved on to all the other stations to buy a car and insurance, buy gas for the car, pay their utilities, buy groceries, shop for furniture and appliances. They would then visit the doctor and draw a card for something like:
Get the picture, unknown expenses.
And then there was the Green Reeper!!!!! (Really, all dressed up and following them around.He is after their green:
Halfway through the game the "Who Am I" station is replaced with the "GO Center". Students come to the station to find out what it is all about, and are given the opportunity to go back in time and and use available resources of the "Go Centers" to make the right decision and pursue post-secondary education.
They are then given a new Life Card with an occupation that they can get with further education after high school. They can then go through the game again with more money and more experience on how to successfully budget their money.
It was interesting to observe the reactions...some got it...some did not. It was easy to pick out who had been taught some basic budgeting, and very apparent that some had no clue what a budget was. Some were just going to live at home with mom & dad (they think!) Most were cheap on their homes, but loved the fancy cars. As a REALTOR, I was amazed at that one!
What a great experience! We had fun with the kids and I think they enjoyed it. One young man, after visiting the utilities station commented "Now I know why my Dad is always following us around turning off the lights".
I am very excited to be participating in a program sponsored by The Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce for middle school students called "Get A Life". Students will learn how to handle money and to purchase things that they will want in life, a home (that's my job), a car, food, clothing, furniture...all the things that we all have to make choices to buy or not buy when we grow up and move out on our own.
I am new to this, and I am told I will be given a choice of homes to try to sell to them. They will be given "money" and will have to make choices...for instance, buy a small starter home or a big McMansion. Will they have enough money? Do they make enough money to afford that? Does their job pay what they need to get the things that they really want in life? Or would going to college maybe help them get a better job so they can afford the things they want. The purpose, I understand, is to help the students understand that they have difficult choices to make, and that their choices will affect their lifestyle and their success or failure as adults.
"Get A Life" sounds like a program that can help them do just that.
I am looking forward to participating and will be anxious to see how the students handle themselves. Children are going to have a tough road ahead of them considering the economy and what is happening in our country today. I hope I can play a small part in the lives of the students, and who knows, maybe one day I will really sell them their first home...be it the small starter home or the big McMansion...it will be their own choice.
