FPU Week 11

Only two more lessons left. It has been a fun and rewarding group so far. This week's lesson was about Careers and Extra Jobs. Too many of us assume that we will never have to look for another job. We are comfortable where we are, we don't like change. Time for a reality check! The real world stats indicate that many of us will have 18 jobs in our lifetime. The hard fact is that as long as you are some one's employee you could show up in the morning and find out that your job no longer exists. This lesson gives great advice on how to approach the world of getting a job. Dave also talks about the possibility that for a period of time in our lives we may need to explore the possibility of an extra job. Not as a way of life, but as a temporary way to boost your income to pay off debt or save for something special. Great resources in this lesson!!
Almost everyone made it to class. I suppose we should extend an excused absence to they guy who had an emergency appendectomy.
