聽力每日練習(xí) listen 4486 Why do you keep running out of money

2--What?  Again?  Why do you keep running out of money?

1--I guess I don't earn enough.

2--No,I think  it's  how  you budget your life, that's the  problem.

1--That's my business, not yours.

2--True enough, until the time comes that you need to take my mon-ey.I don't know where you're wasting your money but I think you need to take a look at what's really important.

1--So how do you survive from pay day to pay day?

2--I don't just survive. I put money away as well.I know when I get paid where most of the cash will go, and I stick to my plan. If I follow a budget I don't have any nasty surprises.

1--I'm not disciplined enough I guess.

2--ln a few months I'm planning to invest my money into some for-eign companies. I think you need to reevaluate your spending hab-its.

===================================

譯文：

1--你可以借我50美元嗎？

2--什么？又借？你怎么老是缺錢？

1--我想是賺得不夠多。

2--不，我想是你沒有好好計(jì)劃開支，這才是問題所在。

1--那是我的問題，不關(guān)你事。

2--你說得對(duì)，可是每次你來找我借錢，我不知道你是怎么花掉你的錢的，但是你應(yīng)該想想什么事情真正值得花錢。

1--那你是怎樣度過沒有發(fā)工資的日子呢？

2--我不僅僅“度日”，我還存錢，領(lǐng)了工資后，我知道錢該往什么地方花，而且我堅(jiān)持這種做法，我遵循一個(gè)比較固定的預(yù)算。量人為出，這樣我就沒有你這種麻煩了。

1--我想我無法那么自律。

2--幾個(gè)月以后我打算把錢投資到一些外國(guó)公司去。我想你應(yīng)該再反省一下你的花錢習(xí)慣。
