We began our money unit today and discussed how people can get income. We also discussed income taxes, gross pay vs. net pay and looked at some common living expenses. We compared income levels for individuals that had a college diploma versus those with a high school diploma and the students were able to see why investing in themselves and continuing their education could yield higher income levels. When discussing education, we talked about college, vocational/techical school and the military as all viable options that will improve their skills and make them more marketable.
