I will put half the money in the saving jar, 200 yuan in the investing jar, 200 yuan in the spending jar and 100 yuan in the giving jar. I must save a lot of money for my future education. I need to invest myself, such
as buying online courses and going to
the gym. Besides, I need money to buy
books, pay telephone bills and so on. I
also intend to show my concern for
those in need, so I will put aside some to give others.
