Meet the Applicants- Charlie

Tuesday, September 22, 2009

Charlie is a freshman at San Marcos High School and has big dreams for his future. He feels that learning to save money will help him succeed in achieving these dreams.

His goal for this Challenge is to save money for a car. He realizes that something this big will not be easy, but feels that if he keeps his mind to it, tries his hardest, and never gives up, he will achieve this goal and any others he has. However, saving money isn't easy for him, not because he spends a lot, but because he doesn't earn a lot of money and has an addiction to chocolate! He knows he would need to cut back on needless spending in order to achieve his goal.

By saving enough money for a car and reaching his goal, he will show himself that he CAN reach any goal he has set for himself. He wants to be an "A+ person".
