Project Day 4- The Ups of Life

Read First
Discuss with your spouse/ brother/sister/ partner what you want to do
with the extra money in your account. If you decide to spend it, you
must let me know and reflect the cost in your budget. You can decide
to save now and spend it on another day or spend it now and save it
for the rest of the game. The choice is up to you, but you cant spend it
now and return it later. Make your decision now.

Pay day again! Your landlord calls you into their office; they are raising
your rent. You now have to pay an extra $150 a month. MTA makes an
announcement that they are broke again and have to raise the
monthly metro cards by $10 a month. In addition, city residents are
complaining about the raising cost of gas. Everyone who has a car
finds themselves spending an extra $15 a month. Just what you
needed, right? You need to decide if you want to take a risk. You have
the option of getting a chance card which contains a situation that can
either a make you richer or poorer. If you want he chance card ask me
for one. Whatever the card said is to be reflected in todays budget. Fill
out your budget to reflect the new price increases, and purchases you
made and your change card if you took one. Dont forget to write a
withdrawal slip for the expenses that need to come out and update
your checking account summary page to reflect all changes to your
account
