My parents give me an allowance every week. An allowance is the money I earn (赚得) when I do chores or jobs around the house. There are a lot of things I want to buy with my allowance, but I have to earn it first! There are many ways to earn money. I do chores, make my bed and empty the dishwasher. I also help my parents whenever they ask.
My parents let me choose how to spend my allowance, but they say I shouldn’t use it up at once. That’s why they taught me about budgets (预算). A budget helps people buy things now and also save for things in the future. My mom says there are three ways to use my allowance. I can spend it, save it, or give it away. I want to do all three, so my mom and I make three jars. One is a “spend” jar, one is a “save” jar, and one is a “give” jar.
Spend Jar
The spend jar is my favorite! I put most of my allowance here. At the end of the month, I count up all my spending money. I use it to buy things and do fun things with my friends.
Save Jar
Sometimes, there are things I want, but I don’t have enough money. That’s what the save jar is for. I put some of my allowance in it. It builds up more and more each week. After a while, I have enough money to buy what I want.
Give Jar
The last jar is very special. It’s the give jar. I donate (捐赠) the money to a charity (慈善) or another good cause. My dad says that donating money helps other people and makes our world a better place.
I like putting my allowance into my three jars. It’s fun to see it build up over time! Do you earn an allowance?
