NOTES FROM ME: Please provide more than 700 words of content since I will not use any content I do not truly understand. Please cite sources used within the paper along with References page at the end. Assignment says to use at least 3 peer-reviewed sources but more important to me is that there are at least three sources with hyperlinks to websites I can easily access online. Course text book shown in profile of this assignment is a good option as one source (if you choose). Please do not use word for word quotes from sites like Investopedia as I have had a tutor do that before and I had to fix it.
