The Money and Strangers Badge Challenge
6 questions from the 3 lessons in this badge. You need every one right, and you can try as many times as you like.
Step 1 of 6
1Decide
Which one of these is a real job?
The card in the window. You can walk in and ask a person, they can see you, and the money moves one way, towards you. Boring is a good sign. Real jobs for people your age are nearly always boring.
Follow the money. In every one of those it moves away from you first: a starter pack, your bank details, fifty to flip. A real employer has never once needed money from a new starter. Anybody who does is not an employer.
Pick the right one to carry on.

They reply: bring your mum? seriously? come on your own, it's weird otherwise.
You do not go. One nuance: you do not have to block them or make a speech. Not this time, then, is a complete reply. If they are who they say, they will still be there next week and fine with the café.
They argued with a condition. That is the whole test, and they failed it in one message. A quieter place is not a compromise, it is the opposite of public. Somebody who wants you on your own has told you what they want.
Pick the right one to carry on.

5Decide
He says it's just a favour. His account's frozen.
Right. One more thing: a frozen account is a real thing that happens to real people, and a real person with a frozen account asks an adult, not a thirteen-year-old on a bus. The ask itself tells you which kind this is.
The reason does not matter. It could be true. It does not change whose name is on the statement, and asking what it is for just gets you a better story. Nobody uses your account. That is the whole rule and it has no exception for people you know.
Pick the right one to carry on.
