Hi. Welcome to week six. We're going to be learning about investment fundamentals this week. Some of the basics, if you will. I like to call it the rules of the investing game, if you will. We've got some readings to learn a little bit more about financial security, about understanding the relationships between risk and return. I'm going to have some presentations in this week as well for you. going to talk about the difference and the basics of savings and investing, how there are two parts of the same issue. But really potentially referencing different parts of the process, if you will. We're going to talk about the difference between being an owner or being a lender. In other words, what's the difference between investing in stocks, what's investing in bonds. So getting into a little bit more of that issue of risk and return as a very important relationship. Im going to ask you guys to take a look in the discussion sections and focus on a few particular things that I'd like you to look at. In particular number one, look, once you've learned a little bit more about risk and return to talk to us about your thoughts on the various subject matter, in terms of taking investment risks. And then also, if you guys are following some stocks, to think a little bit about what you might find, find a chart related to them. And talk a little bit more about what you're finding. What things you find interesting about an investment. What would make you choose to invest in it or not? So we're very interested in your discussion postings on that, of course, as well. Your assignment's going to focus on you setting goals which we'll define as being the most important part of the investment planning process is really setting these smart goals. So we're going to ask you to focus on that for this week's assignment and share that, of course, going forward. So thank you guys very much for all your hard work over the last few weeks. And now we're going to focus, starting for the rest of the period, on making our money work for us, which is really one of the heart and souls of investing. Thank you guys and have a wonderful week.
