Warm-Up: Needs and Wants

What do You Want? 
or What do You Need?

--Is there a difference?

Have you ever thought about what you would most like to buy when you begin to earn money? List three items at the top of your POST that you would most like to purchase right now.

At some stage in your life you will have to make decisions on how to manage your hard-earned income. You will have to balance your spending and income. This is called "budgeting".

Drawing up a budget will help you make decisions.

Open a NEW BLOG Post
Write a complete paragraph to explain the difference between a "need and a "want".

You will have a list of needs and wants. Create two lists in the same post that you used for your paragraph. Each should have at least the same number of rows of at least 8 rows. Make a list of your NEEDS and a list of your WANTS, grouping them under the two headings "Needs" and "Wants" Use a Bulleted or Numbered list.

Try to put the most important ones at the top of the lists!
