Microfinance and grades

Today in class we did a little review on microfinance but mostly we went a little off topic on for example Kickstarter and its differences between Kiva.  Mostly Kickstarter is for people who are already blessed with things like the internet and banks.  People go onto Kickstarter to help our people with their products by giving away money.  Kiva is for people who aren't fortunate enough to have these good things.  Kiva is also strictly loans.  We also decided wether we were going to have a test on Microfinance this week.  The class decided on no.  I am very happy about this because I typically don't good on Mr. Shicks tests and don't want  to risk getting moved down to a C.  We also discussed more about philanthropists and especially a slide on Malaria and how philanthropists give to poor country to help prevent the disease
