Leasing and Financing

I am going to finance this car.
The only difference really between financing and leasing is that financing is $26.12 more than leasing. For the interest rate, I would have to pay $2318.24 added onto the $24,100. When I'm done paying everything off I would have paid $26418.24 over 6 years. I prefere to finance it.

Portfolio assignment.2

Select 6 pieces of work/activities (guest speaker presentations and field trips can be included) that demonstrate your learning. Base your assignments/activities off the following:
  • process: choose an assignment with a number of steps you had to complete in order to be successful
  • The YPI Project- We had to re do and change our project many times before it was ready, and we had to email and call and meet our charity to make sure everything was as good as it could be.
  • perseverance: assignments where at first you found difficult but worked hard at, without giving up and eventually were successful
  • The YPI Project- At first I didn't really want to do the project, and it was hard to get started and seemed boring but after meeting with the charity we pulled through and got everything done, and it ended up being really good.
  • risk taking: assignments in which you moved outside of your comfort zone and tried something new or unexpected
  • The STI Project- It's kind of an awkward topic to get up in front of the class to talk about. We didn't want to say all the symptoms but pulled through.
  • favourite: assignments you enjoyed the most
  • The Worksafe BC Fieldtrip- It was nice to get out of the classroom and have a hands on experience.
  • The Drop It And Drive Presentation- It was really memorable and it was interesting to have the presenters come in and talk to us about something that was an actually issue in our community, especially with kids our age.
  • something of personal significance: assignments that are significant to you in any way
  • The Collage Project- It was significant to be because it was everything that was relevant to my life.
  • The Worksafe BC Presentation- Having the lady come in and talk to us about our rights as workers was really good considering we are all just starting to get into working. We also all have parents or other family members that work so that was something that was significant to me.
  • burn it: assignments you wish you could burn and never look at again
  • My Dream Career-I don't really have a project that I wish I could burn, but the dream career project was kind of boring.

To be honest I didn't really have any goals going into this course. No one really explain what planning 10 was, so I really didn't know what to expect.
The overall work habit I would have to give myself an S
