During 8th period Sam, Nat, and I were talking and Nat was telling us about her blogs and journals and how she talks about money and things about her project. I asked, "Money? Why money?" She then replied saying, "I have been saving up money over the summer and I had $700. Since I have no job and I been using it to pay bills, I now only have $200 left." Sam and I looked at each other and said, "Where did all your money go?" Nat then said, "Just life....life is expensive." I then thought about it and she is so right! Life is really expensive when you think about it. Between phone bills, food, clothing, and etc. it can really add up. I spend about 150 in two weeks and I don't know where it all went. Even though I try to save my money there is always something coming up. With the senior trip coming and prom a week after, I have no time to save money because all my money has to go to events coming up. Once I start college I can't imagine how harder it will get to get a job and find time to study when I will be far away from home. When Nat said that she made me appreciate money a lot more. I am determine to find a way to save my money and still have the things I need. Thanks a lot Natalie!=]

ReplyDeleteWe adults are terrified to see our retirement accounts get slammed. A year ago, a person might have had $100,000 put away in an IRA. Now that same IRA is down to $50,000. It's awful.
