DISCUSSION #1:

Chapter 1 provides a general overview of Investments.  As you read the chapter, you will find there are many types of investments.  Please choose one you may not have been too familiar with and briefly describe it.

DISCUSSION #2: Chapter 2 outlines processes for the Individual Investor.

Discuss one of the goals below and how they fit into the individual investor life cycle:

Near-term, high-priority goals – shorter-term financial objectives that individuals set to fund purchases that are personally important to them

Long-term, high-priority goals – include some form of financial independence, such as the ability to retire at a certain age
