This thought process inspired me to come up with my creation: a “cheque” that represent the connection between note-taking and making money in the future. In this connection, note taking is like writing a personal cheque to ourselves, with the amount reflecting the average worth of a degree per class. The idea is that taking notes is similar to investing in our future, just like writing a cheque for our own benefit.
