  2. Great explanation of the importance of savings, and the difference between needs and wants. I agree especially with your comment about saving money as a kid means you may have less problems as an adult. Have you started saving already, Mason? - Rain, Singapore

  3. You have learned a great deal about how to save, Mason, and why it's a good idea to save. Perhaps some day you will want to go to college or find your own home. For those things to happen you will need to have saved a great deal of money. With your good understanding of needs and wants, I know you will find a way to save for what you need, as well as save for what you want for your future. Good job!

  4. Hi Mason,

    What great tips you offer! I think you are right about practicing saving money as a kid. You will do very well as an adult when you already know how to manage your money.
