Importance Of Money
I learned the importance of money after I came here. In China, we had our own houses, car, a steady job and we were able to speak in our native language. So everything was very convenient. I use to think money was easier to earn in China. But after arriving here and finding my own job, I know earn money is very hard. First , I have to take public transportation, live in a rented apartment and learn how to speak English. One year ago, I just arrived here with my family. We could not communicate with anyone in English, so we finding job was difficult. But we had more bills to pay. So living here has made me realize that it is difficult to make money and money is very important. Second, I see that a lot of people in America have good jobs, but I also see that there are many people ask for money on the streets. If these people have money , they can not asking others to give them money. I do not know if they are lazy or can not find a job, but seeing so many of them make me believe that money is very important. Finally, there is a Chinese saying:” Having money does not makes you invincible, but having no money makes everything impossible. Now I understand this saying clearly.
