You must have a picture on every slide. 

Do not write full sentences, only use the presentation to remind you of what to talk about next.

Make sure you pick a theme and background. 

You must SHARE this project with me at harvey.scribner@techfreire.org for credit prior to Thursday, March 25th at 4pm for credit!

In case you missed the review, here are the steps to complete this project:

Spend time making sure that your Personal Monthly Budget (PMB) Project is up to date.  You need to have completed Steps 1-8 so far.  Please use the PMB Worksheet and PMB Spreadsheet that should be located in your Google Drive (and shared for credit with harvey.scribner@techfreire.org) to track your work.  You should have the following items on the worksheet/spreadsheet completed by now:

Step 1 - Choose a College & Major:  Research basic information about the college you chose.  If your path did not include college, please describe the training you completed for your chosen career path.

Step 2 - Complete the Budget & Finance step by using the resources on the Class Reference Site (link below)

Step 3 -  Find your first job using Aftercollege.com or another job search website.  You cannot choose a job in, or around Philadelphia.  For this exercise you need to choose a new city in the contiguous 48 states.  Complete this step using information from the job you found.

Step 4 - Find your first apartment in your new city.  Make sure you have a plan to get back and forth to work, know the address and exact monthly rent for your apartment.  You should note any additional fees or benefits (trash, water, sewer included) for this new apartment.  Complete the Data Sheet on the PMB Spreadsheet with your apartment and work information.

Step 5a - Shop for your new apartment.  You will list all furnishings and items you buy, cost, and list them on the spreadsheet (Shopping List)

Step 5b -  Use Google Maps to create a neighborhood map with specific items listed on the website and worksheet.  If you cannot use Google Maps, just find the name of the businesses and locations and the address of each.  List them on the worksheet.

Step 6 - Create a Weekly Menu (Spreadsheet) and decide what you will be eating for a normal week in your new location.  Use the Weekly Menu to create a Grocery List and shop on Instacart (or another supermarket website) to determine how much your weekly food budget should be.  You can include eating out and fast food, but you need to note how much those items would be too.

Step 7 - Look at resources for Utility costs in your new city.  Make sure to add your Rent, Utility Costs, Grocery Bill, and other expenses on the PMB Spreadsheet Budget Page

Step 8 - Use the online resources to estimate the costs, and types, of insurance you might need.  Price and add Renters Insurance to your PMB Budget Spreadsheet.  You should also add estimates for Health, Life, and Auto if you are getting car.  

Step 9 - Final Changes were listed on the Class Reference Website (link below).  Make sure that you follow the instructions listed, and then find places on your budget to include.  One thing I forgot to mention is that when you graduated from college (or training for your career) you had a wealthy relative so proud of you that they gave you $2500 to help you get your start, make sure to include this in your initial budget sheet as income, or put it in savings for an emergency.  Either way it needs to be added to your PMB Budget Spreadsheet.

You will eventually create a presentation for this project that outlines your choices and information.  Email me questions, or ask for help.  Good Luck!  - Mr. S
