I've said this in class, but not here. Ch 20 homework in not from the book. You will go to the link at right, which takes you to a game called Budget Hero. You play it twice: First with what ever "badges" appeal to you personally, then again just to do whatever it takes to balance the budget. After you play there is a summary page, which you can print out and turn in, or you can just copy it and email it to me. Due by Mon 4/30.
