There is a significant difference in the cost of living for college students at the beginning of the month and at the end of the month. At the beginning of the month, everyone's economic conditions are relatively comfortable, and life seems to be a gift from heaven. College students want to try all kinds of food and luxuries, and experience for themselves objects that used to be only looked up to. Even the unreasonably high boutique fruits are no exception. They were curious to think that it would be worth it to have the opportunity to taste such an expensive fruit in their lifetime. But when the end of the month came, the financial situation of college students took a 180-degree turn. Faced with the same item, they couldn't help but hesitate, feeling that such consumption was really extravagant and wasteful, and decided to give up buying. At the beginning of the month, no one was in sight and at the end of the month they had to give up in order to save money, so that college students felt the negative impact of living expenses.
At the beginning of the month, college students live a fairy-like life, feasting on food and luxuries. They have broken the previous restrictions on ** and are willing to try new things. For example, for a high-quality fruit of 500 yuan, college students at the beginning of the month will not hesitate to buy one to satisfy their strong curiosity about luxury goods. At the end of the month, there was a huge shift in the consumption concept of college students. They begin to look at every expense, say "no" to ** goods in order to save money, and even try to reduce their own expenses. At the end of the month, college students may jokingly say that they are going to start a life of "roasted maggots", a self-deprecating joke that shows their helplessness and humor under financial pressure.
There is a huge difference between college students and their parents' perceptions of living expenses. Parents have experienced the hardships of life when they were young, and they know how to be frugal and frugal. They are Xi to spending money on the most practical aspects and never waste it. In contrast, college students are more inclined to pursue novel experiences and luxuries. They put their money on things on their bucket list and are happy to try all sorts of new and expensive items.
For ordinary food, there are also obvious differences in the consumption concepts of college students and parents. For example, when college students see an egg worth 500 yuan, they will stop and watch curiously, and even consider trying to see how this ** egg tastes different from ordinary eggs. Parents will feel that such consumption is really extravagant and incomprehensible. This is especially true at the beginning of the month, when college students will gradually realize the importance of frugality and change their consumption perceptions as time goes on.
College students need to reflect on how to manage their living expenses. A reasonable spending plan can help them avoid unbridled spending and waste. In a way, this is also a lesson in their independent growth. Parents can work with their children to make spending plans to guide them to spend wisely. For the problem of controlling living expenses, parents can give their children living expenses in a gradual way to help them gradually learn to manage money. However, this does not mean that the living expenses for children should be reduced, but that they should be gradually guided to plan their expenses reasonably under the premise that economic conditions allow.
Of course, for those college students who can't control their own expenses, self-discipline and financial literacy are especially important. It is a wise choice to avoid coveting the momentary pleasure and avoid regrets. When torn between buying and not buying, college students need to think rationally. Instead of wasting too much energy and money on all sorts of illusory things, the cost of living should be truly rewarding materially and spiritually.
There is an obvious gap between the living expenses of college students at the beginning of the month and the end of the month, because college students often have irrational consumption concepts and unreasonable spending plans when they manage their living expenses independently. At the beginning of the month, college students are keen to try out all kinds of novelty items and luxuries, and enjoy the fairy life. And at the end of the month, they had to give up some of the items they wanted to try in order to save money. At the same time, there are obvious differences between college students and parents in terms of consumption concepts, parents are more inclined to be frugal and practical, while college students are more interested in novelty and luxury.
Managing living expenses is an issue that college students need to take seriously, and a reasonable spending plan and a rational consumption concept are very important for their growth and future. Parents can help their children establish a correct concept of consumption through guidance and education, and at the same time, they can also properly manage their children's living expenses and help them gradually master their financial management skills. College is a time for you to grow up independently, and learning how to manage your living expenses is also an essential lesson in the process.
In the comments, many people may have had their own experiences of not having enough money to live on when they went to college. You can share your story, discuss how you manage your living expenses, and your advice for college students to manage living expenses. At the same time, you can also complain about the absurdity of the difference between the cost of living at the beginning of the month and the end of the month.
