Using money wisely at school
Gloria complains to Simon that she is spending money too fast. Simon offers her advice on how to use money wisely.
A: Simon, can you lend me 20 yuan? I ll return it to you early next month.
B: Run out of money again? How much money do your parents give you each month, if I may ask?
A: 300 yuan.
B: 300 yuan? That s 100 yuan more than what I get from my parents. How can you get into financial problems so quickly?
A: I don t know. I haven t bought anything particularly expensive. I thought it was because my parents gave me too little.
B: Of course not. You see, with 200 yuan I do just fine. The trick is to make a good plan first. Buy things only when they are in your plan.
A: Ok, that sounds reasonable. From now on, I ll try to learn from you.
