Saving money gives you freedom. If you have enough savings you may be able to give up your job. I know a couple (夫妻) who saved up money that they were able to leave their for a year, and travel across the country. You could see the wonderful experiences they had they were able to enjoy that time together.
Saving money is improving your life. It is important to realize that saving money now you will be able to do so many more things in your later years. You can retire early and spend time around the world. By saving money now, you will be able to do as things as you like and enjoy a good life.
Saving money will bring you peace of mind. Every dollar that you have in the bank is a dollar, which stands between you and disaster. People who have savings are not when a car breaks down, or someone becomes sick. They know that they will be okay if they lose a job, and it takes time to find a new .
Saving money sets an example for your children. By teaching your children to save money and plan for the future, you are in control of where you spend your money, and what you do it. It may be one of the most important ideas that you teach your children.

“Never give up!” It is my law of life. It has brought me . I learned the law from my father’s story.
My father was in a poor village in the north of Jiangsu, in China. When he was a young boy, he went to school in the morning, then in the fields till sunset. And then he did his homework midnight. Life was hard, because they had no !
At the age of 14, my father heard of the United States of America. It was the land of gold, the land where people can become rich.
“ don’t I go to America?”he thought to himself, full of hope.
So my father came to America. “I had thought it was easy to money in America,”he told me. “But when I arrived there, I realized it was not true. They did not like to hire me because I spoke English. Later, I worked in a small restaurant, cleaning up tables, dishes and sweeping the floor. Life was for the first few years. I worked from 10 am to 11 pm. I wanted to go to school to learn English, but it was impossible. I couldn’t the schooling.”
My father working hard, and reached his goal.
“Alan,”he often says to me. “If you want something, you have to work for it and never give up. Things do not come in life.”That is what I learned from my father.

What’s your idea about success? Some people say that beginners have all the luck, while others believe that success only with practice. In fact, I feel both of these statements (陈述) are not true all the time. Each is true in some ways not in others.
For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago and surprisingly. As a prize, I got a film ticket to see “Titanic”. I was really because it was the first time I had taken part in any competition, Thinking that I might be lucky again, I joining in other art competitions, But the result was that I won again. I accepted the fact that the other people had a artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills. So, the I produced were not of a very high standard(水平).
These experiences taught me a lot. Though I might have been lucky , I also need to put in hard work. As we know, makes perfect. So I believe success builds on less luck and chance.
