Re: Money Money Money..

I'm surprised you got in to Philadelphia. We were trying to get into the regional a few weeks ago, but all of the spots were taken.

yeah, there's like three spot's open as of right now. Hopefully if my team can figure out this money situation, there will only be two after tomorrow.

Things like that happen all the time with spots opening at the last second. Team 1772 from Brazil had to drop out of GSR at the last second due to visa issues.

I would recommend charging it on a credit card if you can as it allows for payment down the road especially if you decide to sell light bulbs in the next month with the proceeds going to the payment. Having the students go out to business is great along with giving each of them a target goal so they can understand how much each of them needs to raise in order to go.

Good luck!

Thanks, it's much needed at this point.
