For the second week in a row... TRAVIS FRENCH!! Great job, Travis! When asked how he felt about the back-to-back wins Thursday evening, Travis said, "Wow! This is the best thing that's ever happened to me...In my life!!! Mr. Williams, thank you for this incredible opportunity you've given me. I still don't think you're the wisest teacher in our school, but you're ok. In fact, you're my all-time favorite economics teacher (even though you really stink at the Stock Market Game)." When asked of his plans for his pretzel or ice cream, Travis said he was going to pick the ice cream again, but promised he would keep it with last week's reward in his locker until after wrestling season.
And in the Golf portion of the stock market game, after 5 weeks atop the leader board, we have a new negative leader. Unseating Brandon took some time, but Sean Farrell came through when it counted most, crushing Brando to "win" by over -$10,000. When contacted after the closing bell of the exchange a very emotional Sean stated that his new goal was not just to be the negative leader next week, but to actually finish with less than $7,500 total. "Claiming the lead was an accomplishment, especially over a competitor like Brandon," Sean said, "but now that I'm here, I've got to set new goals and watch out for others trying to take my title."
