So, I headed back to school this week.

It’s going to take some adjusting!! I am taking World History, Science, Math, Language Arts, Spanish, Computer, and of course, music. But I am adding some new “classes” this year. These are the really fun kind. The kind that answer my questions about saving money and making smart money choices. I can use this info for the rest of my life! (I’m not sure if I can say that about World History ) These classes are online through the GTE Federal Credit Union’s U22 program. All I do is sit at my computer and choose the subject that looks good to me. I’m thinking I am going to start with “How to achieve my financial goals.” Maybe this will help me focus on a goal and save for it the right way. I spent a lot of money on my back to school stuff. (I just HAD to have that disco ball for my locker!!) Now I need to save again. I have some good paying gigs coming up. Even though it is tempting to head right to the mall, I am trying to save so that when I get older, I have a head start with some money in the bank – make that the credit union!
