2) A 4-7 minute "infomercial" done in a group of 2 or 3, presented in class on Tuesday May 12th (ready at the beginning of class)

3) A 4-7 minute "movie trailer" done in a group of 2 or 3, presented in class on Tuesday May 12th (ready at the beginning of class)

All papers and presentations must cover (or provide advice) for each of the major topics discussed in class ((SMART) financial goals, budgeting, credit, borrowing money, insurance, buying/renting property, saving and investing) optional topics: avoiding fraud, taxes

Infomercials or movie trailers must...

-involve all group members (in significant roles)

-include a visual component (but don't read from a poster board)

-include advice on each major topic

-include a "personal story" of the financial "highs and lows" of a character, or someone (made up) who followed your advice
