My
family's large. You know what I mean?
So, I definitely have to plan for Christmas
presents. Have to make sure that I get
something for everyone.
I'm
planning for my birthday party next month!
I'm inviting Keisha, Yoo-sun, Emily, Jamilla,
Ariana, and Vicky, and (oh yeah) my brother...
Junior.
I'm
planning for Saturday afternoon: B-ball
in the morning, then a little study time,
then I have to help my uncle at this store..
Too much goin' on not to plan it out.
Oh,
do I need a vacation! This year I want
to take my kids to the Grand Canyon to
see one of the wonders of the world. You
know I have to plan for that!
What
about YOU?
What
are some things you plan for?
Write
your answers in your Money Notebook.
When
people plan for something,they
generally make lists.
For
example, Jayson made
a list of all the things
he wanted to do on Saturday.
Penny made a list of
all the poeple she wanted
to invite to her birthday
party.
When
you make a budget plan,
you'll also need to
start making lists.
List
your earnings
(the
money you get from a
job, allowance or gifts)
AND your
expenses (the money
you have to spend).
