Saving Money and Depositing It
Abby:We need to start saving money for a rainy day.
Rick:Yeah, I know, but we still need to live too. I don’t want to work just to save.
Abby:Well, we can save 20% of all our earnings and put it in the bank.
Rick:20% sounds too high. How about 10%?
Abby:If we start saving and keeping it in the bank now, we’ll have enough money to retire comfortably.
Rick:I don’t think about retirement too often. It seems so far off in the future?.
Abby:If we don’t put money in the bank now, we’ll have to work right up until the day we die. I don’t want to be working when I’m in my 70s?.
Rick:I don’t guess so?. I never thought about it that way.
存钱与储蓄
艾比:我们得开始存钱以备不时之需了。
瑞克:是的,我知道,但是我们也得生活,我不想仅仅为了存钱而工作。
艾比:嗯,我们可以把我们收入的20%存入银行。
瑞克:20%听起来太高了。10%怎么样?
艾比:如果我们现在开始就把钱存到银行,我们就有足够的钱舒服地退休了。
瑞克:我不怎么想退休的事,似乎还很遥远呢。
艾比:如果我们现在不把钱存到银行,我们就到死都得工作。我可不想七十多岁时还要工作。
瑞克:我不这样认为。我从不那样想。
