Wednesday, May 15

Finance Park Book: 
#28) Entertainment and Recreation, page 111
Most of the directions are on this page as it is written.  The few adjustments are mostly specific to your age and family situation as well as any lucky or unlucky chance cards.
*YOU MAY USE THE INTERNET.
*List the details like how many tickets bought, where you went, for how many hours, etc.; total costs are not enough information!
*Be sure your activities (movies, hiking) are age and family appropriate.
*Be sure to "go out" if you need to.
*Be sure to get a babysitter if your children are younger than 12.
*If you travel outside of the general Olympia/Tumwater/Lacey area (more than 30 miles) you need to account for gas.  In these cases, you will need to figure out the gas mileage of the car you bought (or buy a bus ticket) and record that as well.
*Eating out, restaurants, and school lunches are not counted in the entertainment category.  However, if you buy popcorn or a jumbo pop while at the movies, they count as expenses.
*You may include an extra sheet with your work on it OR use one of the back pages in your book; just let me know on page 111 where to find your work.

  1. do all of the activities have to be in the same month? ( i was going to go to a soccer game and then like a month later going to an sculpture design)

  2. It's okay if you want to "go" in a different month; you can just assume that you are paying for it THIS particular month.

    Mo ;-)
