As I look back upon a week before I started this class, I though this course would be black and white in a sense that it was mostly about one thing...money. As soon as the first week ended, I knew that the material we would learn throughout the next 15 weeks would be more insightful then I previously assumed. Through class discussions, interesting reading material and videos not only did I learn tons of information but I also learned to appreciate the subject. Economics is not just about the money, it's about being creative and educated. I appreciate they way economies have changed over the years and how every day someone somewhere is starting their journey in the world of economics by becoming an entrepreneur. What I didn't realize before I started this class was how over the years, I myself have entrepreneur and leaving my tiny mark around several states. When I was around 10 years old I had asked my parents for a camera as a gift, and they got me one. After that I fell in love with taking pictures and by the time I was a teenager I had started my own little photography business. Since then I have continued to use my skills and creativity to navigate the business world. It is amazing to think that millions upon millions of people around the globe have their own ideas and creativity to offer. This class has definitely given me a new perspective and appreciation on economy and how amazing it is to see where we started versus where we are today.
