Both students in America
and France noticed that money is piece of metal or a
green paper that leads to materialism (although necessary).
They also agree that money is the source of power , freedom ,
independance ,
as well as the root of evil , crime , corruption and social problems
.
Money is the sign of luxury , wealth , success and prestige .
The reactions seem to differ a little bit about the ways of spending
money .
While the Americans approach this issue from materialistic point
of view
(buying foods , clothes etc. ) , French are a liitle bit more
original .
They think about vacations , traveling and I am prety sure that
French know
how to spend earned money with more joy than Americans do .
I am just interested how do young people in France spend their
money .
And are you going to spend a lot of time and money next summer
during World Cup ?
Thanks
