Bite of Reality: Interactive Real-Life Finance Simulation

Bite of Reality participants receive a fictional identity, which includes an occupation, salary, family, credit cards, and a checking account. They then visit several stations to purchase housing, transportation, food, clothing, child care, entertainment, and other necessities. During the exercise, the teens must make challenging decisions when they discover their salary may not cover both their desires and necessary expenses. RCU volunteers are on hand to help students with their budget and financial priorities. Check-In and dinner will begin at 6:00, with the event itself starting at 6:30. DO NOT BE LATE.
