Question #1

Percentages

If you owed someone $500 plus interest, which would be higher to pay back?

Answer: B) $500 + 5%
$500 + 5% equals $525 — that's $15 more than $510. Understanding percentages is fundamental to every financial decision you make, from loan interest to investment returns.
Question #2

Inflation

If both your income and the prices of products you buy were to double over the next 20 years, how much would you be able to purchase?

Answer: C) The same as today
When income and prices rise at the same rate, purchasing power stays the same. This is the core concept of inflation — your money isn't growing if prices are rising just as fast.
Question #3

Compound Interest

You have $1,000 in a savings account earning 1% annually. What would your balance be after 10 years if you never withdrew any money?

Answer: A) More than $1,100
Thanks to compound interest, you'd have $1,104.62. Each year, you earn interest on your interest — not just the original amount. This is the same power that drives long-term wealth building.
Question #4

Impact of Losses

Suppose you lose 50% of a $10,000 investment. How much return would you need to get back to $10,000?

Answer: C) 100% gain
After a 50% loss, you need a 100% gain just to break even. $5,000 must double to return to $10,000. This is why protecting against large losses is a cornerstone of smart financial planning.
Question #5

Risk Diversification

Generally speaking, is it more secure to put your money into one place, or spread it across multiple investments?

Answer: B) More than one place
Diversification reduces risk by spreading investments across different assets. If one investment declines, others may hold steady or grow — protecting your overall portfolio.
