What is Money Live?
Money Live is a real-life, hands-on simulation designed for middle and high school students.
For middle schoolers, we cover topics such as decision-making, needs v. wants, time management, part-time jobs, and more. For high schoolers, we put students in the shoes of parents, forcing them to make long-term choices about housing, food, childcare, insurance, auto buying and more.
STCU facilitators provide each student with a profile of their potential life ten years from now. Who will you be? Pilot, web developer, physical therapist? Then each student must make choices — and learn what your choices are going to cost you.
Students will appreciate Mom and Dad just a little bit more. Educators will appreciate students exploring the real cost of living.
Money Live can be requested by educators to be brought into your school. Please email mymoney@stcu.org for more information.
