James is saving up for the down payment on a house. He wants to
put 20% down, which means for the size house he wants he needs to
have $40,000. He would like to achieve this goal in 5 years. He has
refused to invest in stocks because he sees them as too risky for
this goal. After paying rent and other necessary expenses, James
can save $450 per month for his down payment. Is his goal of
$40,000 in 5 years achievable? Why or why not?
