Lisa: It helps to pay for my rent and meals at college. It also pays for things like my cell phone, books, transportation, and clothes.
Min Young: You don’t have much money for fun, do you?
Lisa: That’s true! My mother advised me to stick to my budget carefully so I don’t have to borrow. I don’t like to owe money. And I don’t want to pay the bank any interest. I hardly ever go to movies. My roommates and I usually rent movies and split the cost. And, I don’t go to restaurants very often. My roommates and I usually cook our own food, so it’s cheaper to eat.
