1. Saving Money: The Justin Sisbarro Experience An original PowerPoint constructed by: Justin Sisbarro Mr. Maurer, Period 1

2. Background Info I, Justin Sisbarro, have a dream. That dream is to one day own a racing car game just like the ones in at your neighborhood arcade. I would like to save money in order to purchase a Need For Speed racing game that costs about $6,500.00.

3. Problem I just started a savings account at PNC Bank, in wich I put a down payment of $1000 on a CD. With said, CD I have a rate of 1.5% compounded monthly. I thought it would be reasonable to deposit $125 every month into my account. How long will it take for me to reach my goal of saving $6,500 and fulfilling my dream of owning a Need For Speed racing game?
