14V: Investment

The definition of 'investment' is "the investing of money or capital in order to gain profitable returns, as interest, income, or appreciation in value." When people hear the word investment, they usually think of money, as in investing money into a stock market or something, but there is more to the word than that.

Investment definitely comes into play in a college students life. For one, you are investing a lot of money to get a good education for a job in the future, but also investing your time into work and studying for all your classes. You wouldn't want to waste lots of money by not taking school seriously and slipping in all of your classes would you? College is a big time investment, both financially and mentally, so you need to take it seriously and know that all the 'investing' that you're making with your schoolwork will eventually pay off in the future when you have a degree! (and a job!)

Other important words from this week are thankful and stress. 
Stress is definied: a state of mental tension and worry caused by problems in your life, work, etc.
Thankful is defined: : glad that something has happened or not happened, that something or someone exists, etc.: of, relating to, or expressing thanks
