Money 钱 (2)
A person who is financially savvy (intelligent, perceptive, and well-informed on the subject of money) will always save money. It’s a good idea to have an emergency fund of at least 3-6 months of living expenses (the amount of money you use to survive in everyday life). You can also invest money in the stock market – you could make a nice profit, but there’s also the risk of losing money if the economy goes downhill (starts to get worse). 一个有经济头脑的人(聪明、有洞察力、在金钱问题上见多识广)总是会省钱的。备一笔至少3—6个月的生活费(日常生活中用来生存的钱)的应急资金是个不错的主意。你也可以把钱投资在股市里,可能会获得不错的利润,但是如果经济下滑的话,你就有赔钱的风险。
Let’s say you want to purchase an expensive item like a car. If you haven’t saved up money or set aside money for the purchase, you can borrow money from the bank – which is also called taking out a loan. The disadvantage of this is that you’ll need to pay the money back in installments – plus interest (extra money). 假设,你想购买一个昂贵的东西,如汽车。如果你还没有存够钱或为购房预留资金,你可以向银行借钱——这也被称为贷款。这样做的弊端是,你需要分期付款——加上利息(额外的钱)。
When you travel, you’ll need to change/exchange money to be able to buy things with the local currency. Make sure to change money only at official locations like banks and travel agencies – otherwise, you could be tricked into receiving counterfeit bills (false paper money that is not legally valid). 当你旅行时,你需要兑换货币才能用当地货币买东西。确保只在银行和旅行社等官方场所兑换货币——否则,你可能会被骗而收到假钞(没有法律效力的假纸币)。
