Week 1 Reflection
I consulted data to help me determine what types of student aid I qualified for. I broke down the
extra expenses associated with each school to decide which institution was the best choice
financially. I weighed how much money I would earn in the future against how much I needed to
borrow to determine how large a loan I could afford, so it made sense for me to borrow as much
as possible now and payback that debt over time. I also considered that I wouldn't have to pay
back grant or scholarship money and that it would help me financially in the short run.
I make calculated investments in the stock market by using data-driven strategies. I am less
likely to waste money on risky trades when I know that my decisions are backed by evidence. In
addition, using predictive analytics and other data-driven investing methods, I can forecast the
direction of stock prices, enabling me to make better long-term buying decisions.
