My mum didn't agree to buy another model racing car for me. She said it would be a waste of money. I am angry with her. I want a pair of basketball shoes for my training. But I don't want to ask my parents for money. I get as much pocket money as my sister each month. But my money runs out much more quickly than hers. I think I can spend all my lucky money. But my father doesn't allow me to. My mum wants me to do the weekly shopping for our family. But I don't know how to spend money wisely. | A. You can makc a shopping list first. And you may go to different supermarkets to compare prices before you make a decision. B. You should understand your mum. A model car is not a must. Parents know more about the value of money as they work hard to suppor the family. C. Write down your daily spending of the pocket money in a notebook. This may help you avoid unnecessary spending. D. You can learn numbers first. For example, you can count coins and banknotes with your parents. E. Maybe you can have a yard sale to get money for your shoes. There must be things you don't need any more like old toys or magazines. F. I agree with your father. You can keep part of your lucky money in a bank instead of using it up. This can help you save money for the future. G. You can invite someone working in a bank to your club to give a talk. In this way, you can know more about how banks work. |
