Chapter 11: Money Personality

Since I was very young, my mom has taught my siblings and me how to use money.  When ever we wanted to buy something, we would have to wait for a week then once that week was over, if we still would want to buy it, we could.  I still have that mentality today.  When ever I think of buying something, I will say to my self, do I really need it?  I'm not a big spender, but if were to buy something, it would be something I really needed.  I don't have a personal bank account, so I don't have a credit card.  If I did have a credit card, I would be so careful with it because I have heard enough stories of people going into debt because of a piece of plastic.  Over all I think I handle money very well, I don't treat my self to Starbucks or Ices, but when I do buy, it was thought over carefully.

    HEY AS I TYPE THIS RESPONSE I AM DRINKING A CAPPACINO. LOL I THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY ABOUT THE WHOKE STARTBUCKS THING THOUGH. WE HAVE SIMILAR OPINIONS WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO SPENDING MONEY, AND THAT IS SOMTHING THAT YOUNG PEOPLE DO NOT USUALLY HAVE.

    FYI--typing in all caps on a computer is the equivalent of SHOUTING--so try to avoid it.
