 If I was to give Hawken students any piece of advice, I would tell them to invest as early and as much as they can as soon as possible. When people invest into these big corporations, the ones that are low risk, they are able to have the potential to grow their wealth Which will benefit them when they want to retire. I have invested my self even before this project begun but also it has emphasized the importance of early and safe investments that are diverse. Through my work, I have seen different types of investments and how that when the investments are diverse and low risk, there’s a greater chance for return when the people want to retire. Investing takes time and the more time one has for the money to compound, the more they will have, so if people invest in high school, they will have much more money than they would if they start investing in their early 20s.

  I was inspired to create this project because I enjoy learning about and investing my own money in my free time. I think this is a precious skill that could allow for much more financial freedom and the ability to have opportunities one wouldn't typically have. I don't think enough young people know about the importance of starting to invest early and how much more money a couple more years can produce. I came into my project with the goal of learning more about a different avenue of investment. Through my mentorship with Mr. Tewari, he has helped me understand this field in-depth and has even allowed me to look at real reports. These have helped me understand the whole field and the very specific part he has mastered. He shared his knowledge with me about who can invest and how they would do it. I came into this project with some prior knowledge however, leaving this project, I have learned a lot of new information along with disproving many of my preconceived notions. Mr. T...

 I have grown by my ability to analyze dance reports and be able to make it more manageable. Throughout high school I have done this for my history and English classes, however those documents have always been 100 to 200 years old. Through this project, I have went through many different reports that have been dense, however have been directly connected to 2020 through the present. This has been a completely different experience from analyzing all the other documents because a lot of the difficulty came from understanding the wording in grammar however in these reports the information is very complicated. This is help me a lot because in and after college, I hope to be working in this field which means I will inevitably be doing this as a job so gaining this knowledge and learning this new skill will prove to be very  helpful later in my career.

 I think Hawkin in the Townsend group could potentially offer a course which would teach kids how to invest in safe investments, and this would be a very important life skill because everyone needs to invest and save for their retirement so in learning this very valuable skill they will be able to start earlier and start with an organization that is very well respected in this field. In this course they would learn about what I’ve learned about however they would learn about the different assets in more depth and also learn about why investments are safe and stable.
