Slide #2 - Slide about your city; include name of city, state + pictures showing what your city looks like
Slide #3-16 - 1 slide per category found on the handout given in class with all of your research + savings
Slide #17 - grand total per month and your annual living expense total
Slide #18-19 - Bibliography of ALL the website + resources you used for your presentation -- all of your website links should work -- create a title and hyperlink for each resource

2) Try to use HIGH QUALITY images on your slides that match up with what you want to say and show
3) DO NOT have too many images on the same slide -- it is better to have 1 really great image than a collage of many great images
4) DO NOT have a lot of text on your slides.
5) Your audience should be focused on what YOU ARE SAYING and NOT spending time reading off your slide -- otherwise you are not engaging your audience
