Today all world is crazy about money. We earn money, spend money, borrow money and all our life we want to have as much as possible.
I am very young now to operate a big figure of money, but I always have my pocket money.
Well I started to get my pocket money few years ago. First my parents and grandparents gave me something and I was saving. I was collecting money to buy some toys and chocolate.
When I went to school I tried to earn something in summer, walking the dogs. I started to save to buy presents for my family or some nice clothes that I like.
My parents give me some money regularly. Honestly I have nothing special to buy. Sometime I go to pizzeria or cinema with my friends, collecting money for vacation or something else.
In future I would like to go to university. I also need money for this. Of course my parents will pay, but I would like to help them as well.
In different countries teenagers have pocket money. Unfortunately not everybody can spend them smart. Sometime I read in internet, that teenagers start to buy alcohol, cigarettes and drugs. These are bad and useless things.
My mom says that I have to learn how to save money. It is not easy but I am doing my best. For example, if you have 50 rubles every months, you can spend 30-40 rubles. Rest money you save for future. My mom says, that in past my grandad have saved money so to build a house.
I am too young to start to save for house, but for my education. Anyway for any teenager pocket money today is very important. But you also have to think how to spend them and what to buy.
