EXAMPLE OF A NON-DEVELOPED IDEABecause we didn’t have much money, we didn’t always have a lot of food. Sometimes all we had were sandwiches. I remember being hungry a lot.
THE SAME IDEA BUT MORE WELL DEVELOPEDBecause we didn’t have much money, we didn’t always have a lot of food. Sometimes all we had were sandwiches. I remember being hungry a lot. This made me appreciate the value of money. Today, I always make sure to save and budget enough money for food, because I never want to go hungry again. I have also learned to be smart about how I spend money on food. I’m always looking for good bargains and creative ways to use my leftovers so that I do not waste anything.
