Start-Up What was the job Tom Walker agreed to do for the devil? How did he make money at it? Would you say that the work he did was “honest work?” Why or why not? What modern-day companies do the same job?

Today’s Objective By the end of the period, students will be able to relate the practice of usury in “The Devil and Tom Walker to modern-day financial principles. They will discuss and reflect on the importance of financial literacy.

Modern Day Tom Walker Watch the Public Service Announcement on Payday loans. In what ways are they similar to Tom Walker in his work as a usurer? Watch

Applying Symbolism to Today Let’s take some of the things we see in Tom Walker’s story and apply them to today. As we discuss the following financial principles, answer the questions on your papers.

There are no shortcuts to wealth! Financial Principle #1 There are no shortcuts to wealth! Tom Walker’s “ill chosen” shortcut leads him to his meeting with the devil, which then leads to his ill-gotten riches. What are some modern day shortcuts to wealth? What usually happens when people take these shortcuts?

Financial Principle # 2 Understand interest rates 3. Compare Tom’s interest rate, 4% monthly, to an average mortgage rate of 6% annually. Many see the 4% and assume it is better. Why is this not the case? 4. How do lenders often try to trick us? Where do they hide the details?

Financial Principle #3 Payday loans are bad Tom Walker loaned money at high rates to people who had no guarantee that they would be able to pay him back. Short term lenders charge $15 per week for each $100 borrowed. That’s a 390% interest rate. If you were to borrow $1000 at that rate and then got injured at work the next day and had to stop working for a year, you would owe your lender over $32,000. 5. What happened to the people Tom loaned to if they couldn’t pay? What could happen to you in this situation? 6. Can people avoid being taken advantage of by this type of lender? How?

Financial Principle # 4 Just because a lender acts like he cares about your best interests, all he really cares about is INTEREST. Tom Walker was “the universal friend of the needy, and he acted like a friend in need; that is to say he always exacted good pay and good security.” 7. How can people avoid falling for these kinds of tactics?

Financial Principle # 5 Avoid credit card debt 8. Tom Walker could not have gotten so rich if the people of Boston were not such “eager speculators.” How is buying things on credit similar to speculation? 9. What can people do to avoid credit card debt?

Financial Principle # 6 The choice of whether or not to “make a deal with the devil” is yours alone. 10. Ultimately, it was Tom Walker alone who made the choice to deal with the devil. How can people today make sure that the financial choices they make are wise ones?

Financial Literacy Poster/Flier You will be working to create a mini-poster/flier (one page size) to illustrate one of the 6 financial principles we just discussed. You will create this as a Google Document and submit it to my webpage.

Financial Literacy Poster/Flier Your poster/flier must include: The financial principle you have chosen An explanation of and commentary on that principle. No less than 2 (two) images that relate to that principal. No blank spaces in your ad. Use all the room you have!

All he’s really interested in is… INTERE$T! Poster/Flier Example Friend or Foe? A nice tie, a smile, and a claim to care doesn’t really mean they care! All he’s really interested in is… INTERE$T! Remember who you are dealing with! The person you THINK is your friend is really just trying to MAKE MONEY from the INTEREST on your loan! BUSINESS is BUSINESS! Don’t be fooled into thinking they want the best for you!

Homework Questions on financial principles are due TOMORROW! Posters/Fliers are due, SUBMITTED TO MY WEBPAGE, by FRIDAY!

Exit Ticket Which one of the financial principles discussed do you think is the most important for people to be aware of? Why? Which one do you think you will do your poster on? Why?
