Discuss them with your peers, have a debate, make a list of pros and cons! Realize that you always have more options if you can think critically and creatively. Main Goal: The main goal of these prompts is to drive home the importance of understanding trade-offs in goal setting and financial planning. Each topic presents itself as a relatable real-life scenario offering two distinctive choices involving critical thinking and decision-making. There is no "right" answer: just the right answer for your situation.
