WBL Reflection 05/07/17



The WBL workshop on 05/07/17 was an essential one since it discussed the significance of utilizing your time carefully and how to legitimately contribute your cash and be economical with it. Mr. Frank conducted the workshop and in-depth spoke about the ways, us teens, can be smart with money and how we should take some consideration in investing. He clearly discussed how the teens of today are completely consumed by the idiotic ideals surrounding us like fidget spinners. Mr. Frank was outstandingly motivational stating how instead of us being the consumers and wasting our money, we could be the ones creating these gadgets and getting the money to exponentially grow financially, hopefully.

One of the biggest message put out there during the workshop was the fact that we shouldn't waste our time as the saying goes "Time is Money", literally. Being able to invest and grow was one point that I really want to do after the workshop. Because without any source of money, one won't be able to potentially live independently. Coming from a middle class family, I can't say I've never had something I needed. I, gratefully, have had sufficient of everything from my parents. But, I dream that someday I am able to be better than them and think smart of my actions and my economic situation. I want to be able to use any resource to my advantage and grow financially in order to provide for those who gave back to me, like my parents. That's why people that invest and are able to buy stocks are quite intelligent and mentally prepared for what ever is to come their way. And soon, I'll leave the middle class economic role and stand in a better one.
