Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L1.1 Introduction to Course The Origin of this Program: The Origin of this Program: A little about the man who designed it… Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering Masters of Business Administration 10+ years Heavy Industry Experience 5+ years teaching Consumer Math Final job prior to teaching… – Plant Manager $100+ Million Budget 350 Employees

Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L1.1 Introduction to Course In one company he noticed that, of the 350 hourly employees he was in charge of, most of the new hires were only 2-4 years out of high school and each year he would hire and fire about 150 of them because they were not prepared to work in the real world. In High School, they had learned how to graduate, but no one had taught them how to live and manage their lives. Mr. Hunter designed this class to help students like them learn the skills necessary to be successful in their jobs, and how to apply what is taught in this class.

Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L1.1 Introduction to Course What is our goal as Teachers? “We never require our students to do anything in our class for which we cannot show an immediate and direct application to real life.” We make this promise to our students. “If as a teacher, I cannot show you the application of what I am teaching, then I will stop teaching it. If I cannot prove that my assignment has real life application, I will not assign it.”

Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L1.1 Introduction to Course Welcome to Day 1: So How Does This Work Anyways?

Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L1.1 Introduction to Course Imagine: You just graduated last Friday… CONGRATULATIONS!!! It is Monday morning, and you slept in till 9:30. FELT GREAT!!! Mama just told you that she will kick you out of the house on Friday. GOOD LUCK?!? This class is going to teach you how to survive in the Real World.

Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L1.1 Introduction to Course Remember Mama kicked you out! This is the real world. You need to do the following: 1.Have a job 2.Have a place to live 3.Pay utilities 4.Have transportation (car) 5.Pay for gas and maintenance on the vehicle 6.Have insurance on the vehicle 7.Pay for food 8.Pay for miscellaneous items

Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L1.1 Introduction to Course How that works in this class: 1.Every day you fill out a time card entry. 2.Timecards and assignments are due Thursday. 3.Friday is payday and bills are due. 4.You are responsible to maintain your balance sheets accurately. 5.I will steal from you, cheat you, and not pay you. 6.Your grade depends on your ability to manage your money and catch my “mistakes.” 7.The “A” grade is set by the richest person. 8.Anyone in debt will fail.

Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L1.1 Introduction to Course How that works in this class: 1.I am your boss; you are my employee. 2.If you are late to “work,” I will fine you. 3.If you do not come to “work”, and fail to let me know you will not be there, I will fire you. – me, call me, or leave a message with the school to call off on days you are absent. 4.Missing class for any reason will result in loss of pay for that day. Don’t forget, a negative account balance means you fail this class!!!
