Personal question · Resilience, Equity

When the money didn't stretch

Groups often pool money for a trip, an event or a purchase, and sometimes the total falls short. People may have had different amounts to give, and the plan may need to change.

The two questions

  1. 1Describe a time a shared plan you were part of had to be scaled back or changed because the money did not stretch as expected. What happened, and how did you adjust?
  2. 2Tell us about a time you considered how fairly the group handled who gave what in that situation. What would you keep or do differently, knowing what you know now?
