Talk about a good investment!

I chose this video on stocks because it helps one to understand stocks by breaking it down into a real life situation that a person could find themselves in. It explains how shares are broken up and how an investment can mature and be worth more even after just a few years.]]> 2019-03-25 19:07:35 UTC https://padlet.com/tjdude12345/w9kenfhzqaz8/wish/344985835 tjdude12345 https://padlet.com/tjdude12345/w9kenfhzqaz8/wish/344986024 The video attached below goes over bonds. First by explaining what a bond is and then by explaining how they work. When a company or government needs money the solution is to raise the money by issuing bonds. Investors then lends a portion of the amount needed, a bond is nothing more than a loan where the investor is the lender and the company or government is the borrower. 

I chose this video on bonds and how they work because it does a good job at simplifying what a bond is. In a short video it tells you how the bonds are created, how they work, how the interest is paid, and how you are paid back. It makes the idea of a bond easier to understand and does it efficiently.]]> 2019-03-25 19:08:08 UTC https://padlet.com/tjdude12345/w9kenfhzqaz8/wish/344986024 tjdude12345 https://padlet.com/tjdude12345/w9kenfhzqaz8/wish/344987700 The site attached below goes over what a stock is and explains the way they work.
