    for the band i choose the Rolling Rockers for $8,000 and it will be held at the Two Seasons Hotel for 2,000 and finally the refreshments and decorations will be catered with fancy snacks and decorations!
    He should choose no to buy the new stereo and instead save up to pay of the money he owes on his car. Good credit is important. Then once he pays off his car he can then move out and live by himself and slowly save money to get a new car which will have a great stereo in it!

    He should take out the hunt club, bowling, and CD's. Because he doesn't need to go to a hunt club with the budget he has, he doesn't need to go bowling because he can find cheaper ways to have fun, and he shouldn't buy CD's because you can get free music from the internet.

    He could spend less money on birthdays and stuff to read. Or he could stop eating out for a few months and cook more or buy ramen noodles and rice.

    Place:bTwo Seasons Hotel
    Refreshments: Catered- Fancy snacks and Fancy decoration.

  17. Act1:
    Band: National Debt
    Place:The 2 seasons hotel
    Refreshments:Package deal
    No he wont make this party monthly

    Act2:
    I think that he needs to pay off his house payment first, then get the money that he owes for the car delt with. He can do this by saving the money from his job and his savings. He Also doesnt need to buy the music system he wants until his debts are paid off.

  18. Act 1:
    Band; Busting Gourds
    Place: Valley Country Club
    Refreshments: Catered
    all together that is 8,500 .

    Act 2:
    I think Jim shouldve worried about the paymentss he would've had to pay , and he shouldve had a better plan. And also Jim now has to choose what he would rather have first. I think before he moves out he shol go ahead and deal with his car and then he can move out after a few car payments. And during his payments he can eat in and do more stuff that would save his money faster . So he can get out his friends apartment !
    i know that drove him crazzy, (:

  19. Day one was not hard. My partners in my group are very creative and have great ideas! We pretty much agreed on just about everything!

    For prom, i would choose Philadelphia Transit Authority, it would be at the Valley Country Club and we would have to Package Deal for refreshments and catering.

    Don't buy any CDs, and try not to go out to eat as much.

    :)

  23. I had a lot of fun on day one, making the decison for the place to have our business was the hardest.

    PROM:

    -Activity 1:
    Bands-national debt
    Place-The Valley Country Club
    Refreshments-Package deal

    Activity 2:
    I think that he should pay off more of his car payments before he moves out of the apartment. Right now i thnk it is pretty smart to share costs of the apartment but i do think he worried to much about the costs he would have to pay and should of had a better plan that way he wouldnt be worried about it right now.
