$1,000 or $1,000,000,000

Would you rather have $1,000 in real money or have $1,000,000,000 in classroom money? What would you do with the money? Why would you choose one over the other?

Make sure you have at least 6 sentences in your response.

  1. I would rather have 1,000 dollars in real money instead of 1,000,000,000 dollars in classroom money. I would like that much money in classroom money because it is a lot but I would not know what to spend it on. I would be constantly asked for loans. I do not give loans to people, even in fake money only if they are my best friend. If I has a lot of money in classroom money I could save it for a little while. At the end of the year I would have to give all my extra money back. That would be very frustrating. Even if 1,000 dollars does not seem like a lot, it really is. Even a dollar is a lot. If you save one dollar a day ,which does not seem like a lot, for a whole year you would have 365 dollars! Even if I wanted something that is more than 1,000 dollars, I could put that money towards that.

  2. I would chose 1,000 dollars in real life. Then you could buy real stuff then popcorn and soda. You could go in an hotel and with fake 1 million dollars you can't buy real stuff. If you have million dollars fake you will not be able to spend everything. With the real thousands dollar you can buy computers. So I would chose thousands dollar.AVISHKAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. I would rather have 1,000 dollars in real life than school money. I would rather have 1,000 dollars because in school money it costs five hundred dollars for one popcorn when you could go to costco and get 40 for 20$. Plus school money doesn't have everything i could get with 1,000 dollars because it doesn't have video games, food, etc. Plus there isn't anything I really want except for candy with the school money but i could go out and get a movie ticket or something and have much better items there then at school. Those are some reasons why I would rather have 1,000 dollars in real money than fake money. Matthew Covely#6

  4. I would rather have 1,000 real dollars than have 1,000,000,000 class dollars. One good reason that I would rather have real money than classroom money is because if I were to get all of that class money, I could spend but Ms.Preston would eventually run out of popcorn, soda, and all the passes. Plus if I had all that class money I could only have it for a limited amount of time but with real money I can use it whenever I want. Another reason why I would rather have real money than class money is because with real money you can buy things at stores that require real money and not Monopoly money. If I had 1,000 dollars, I would probably buy gems in games, get games for my computer, then split the rest with my cousins and siblings. This is my opinion on why I would rather have 1,000 real dollars than 1,000,000,000 class dollars. ~*Mason*~ :D

  5. I would rather have 1000 real dollars because if you have a million dollars in class money you just have fake money. Also because you can only like spend it on store day you cant spend it all the time. Another reason is because you can buy usefull stuff with 1000 dollars like buy a phone by so much stuff on amazon. And also you can say I got it at the mall to your friends and be super cool. You cant forget that when you have a 1000 bill you can save up and then maybe even get 100000000 dollars. You can buy so much stuff on games and lots of gems and you can have lots of coins too. I really hope you like my opinion about having 1000 dollars than 1000000000 in class money.

  7. I would rather have $1,000 in real life instead of $1,000,000 in classroom money. There are alot of reasons why I would rather have $1,00 in real life than have $1,000,000 in classroom money and here they are. One reason is because I could by a new phone with $1,000. Another reason is because I could buy myself a dirt bike. Another reason is because I could buy alot of xbox games. Another reason is because it would just be cool knowing you have $1,000 just right in your wallet. Another reason is because I could buy a hot tube with that much $$. Another reason is because I could buy a new xbox one for my self only. Another reason is because I could buy a new skate board. Those are all the reasons why I would rather have $1,000 in real money than have $1,000,000 in classroom money. Nico jorge #11 5/5/15

  8. I would rather have 1,000 dollars in real money than 1,000,000,000 dollars in classroom money. I would do this because I really like having money, saving money and spending money on stuff that I've been saving up for. I would use this money for a dirt bike and a new trampoline. I would also save this money up for college and fun stuff. For example probably paintball and airsoft gear and airsoft guns.This would be awesome.

  9. I would totally have $1,000 in real life because $1,000,000,000 class money is worth nothing. If I had $1,000 in real life I would bye a human-sized hamster ball and run around every where. The $1,000,000,000 would be good in class but I want real money. I would also want a human-sized hamster cage. That would be fun!

  10. I would rather have 1000$ real money the $1,000,000 fake money. $1000 can make a difference in my life. Fake money can't. Even though I could buy a lot of pop, I could still buy even more pop with regular money! I could also buy a new phone with my money. I would also donate some of it. If I had $1,000,000 fake money in class, I would have no idea what to do with it. Plus, people would ask for money all the time. It would get annoying! Emily Campbell #5

  11. i would rather have 1,000 real money. I chose this because 1,000,000 dollars in class money you can't buy what you want. In real money I would buy a dirt bike. Also buy food for my family. With school money you could only buy things that you can use in school. With $1,000 I could buy stuff for a lot of different places. JT Scannell #17

  12. I would rather have 1,000,000 class dollars than 1,000 real dollars. I would choose 1,000,000 class dollars because I can have Ms Prestons Whole candy jar which is ALOT of candy. I could also buy so many homework passes that I don't ever have to do homework again. I would buy a lot of popcorn and pop passes. For our class auction I would win every auction and I would be the only person coming home with stuff.

  13. I would rather have 1,000 real dollars than 1,000,000. Why because if I had real dollars I could buy food and buy a Dirt Bike. With 1,000,000 fake dollars I could only buy pop pass homework passes and pop corn pass. Anyways school is almost over so I would just be wasting them because I wouldn't be able to use them anymore. With 1,000 dollars I wouldn't be wasting it I would actually buy things that we need. So that is why I would rather have 1,000 real dollars.

  14. I would rather have a 1000 dollars instead of 1000000000 class money. First, I have so many things I can pick from instead of a list I can have. Also one thing is that you can spend the money anywere in the U.S. One thing with fake money is you can only use it in class. One cool thing with 1000 dollars is you can get stuff for your family.This is why I think 1000 dollars is better than 1000000000 class money.AA1

  15. I would rather have $1,000 than $1,000,000 (in classroom money) because I would get to buy something maybe I always wanted but never got. $1,000,000 can't really be helpful considering it's classroom money and you can only have limited things to buy. With $1,000 you can pay your bills or taxes or whatever you need but you can't with fake money. Fake money isn't as special as real money because with real money you can get cool things that you might like. Examples of things you can buy with $1,000 in real cash: Phone, dirt bike, games, t.v's etc. The only things you can buy with fake money is passes. It just might take a while to think of what to buy with a $1,000 for some people.

  17. I wold rather have 1000000000 class dollars than 1000 real dollars. Think about it you could get way more popcorn in class dollars than in real dollars. You could buy a couple of video game systems but nothing else. You also could have no homework for forever. I would spend 1000 dollars in three days. Thats why I would chouice 1000000000 class dollars. ryan hanover

  18. I would rather have 1,000 real dollars than 1,000,000 class dollars. First, the school year's almost over, so you probably won't be able to spend it all before the last day. I already have a lot of money, and the bottom of my money envelope is starting to rip! Second, imagine all the things you could do with a thousand dollars. You could go on an awesome shopping trip, a new guitar, Apple's iWatch is coming out soon, so you could buy that, and there are many more great options out there! That is why, I would rather have 1,000 real dollars than 1,000,000 class dollars.

  19. I would rather have $1000 in real life money. I would rather have $1000 in real life because you could buy things that you can use over and over. Another reason I would rather have $1000 in real life is because I would have as much time as I want to spend it. I wouldn't want to have $1,000,000,000 in school money because I would have a limited time to spend it. Another reason I wouldn't want $1,000,000,000 in school money is because there would be as much things to buy. Those are my reasons why I would want $1000 in real life money instead of $1,000,000,000 in school money.

  20. I would rather have 1,000,000,000 class dollars. If I had 1,000,000,000 class dollars I would bye enough homework passes so I won't have to do homework for the rest of the year. For the class auction I would be the only one coming home with stuff. I could bye so many popcorn and soda passes I could have more than one in one day.I would have enough money to buy Ms Preston's whole candy jar.

  21. I would rather have $1,000 real dollars then $1,000,000,000 fake money dollars. One reason I would rather have $1,000 is because it is real money and you cant by anything with fake money. I would buy candy and when I get older I would save it for taxes and bills. I would also buy a phone and get a TV for my room. I would buy a new bed, & a new pool. I would go on a TV show and earn a lot of money maybe even a new plane ticket for a jet. That is why I would rather have real money than fake money. COOPER WRZOSEK # 21 :)
