The difference between needs and wants
It's very easy to waste money—even small purchases like stickers and snacks quickly add up. This makes it harder to save up for the things that you really want, but also means you might run out of money. In that case, you have to 65 what you need, not just what you want.
What do you need?
People often 66 things that they need for things that they want. For example, you need to eat dinner, but that doesn't mean you need takeaway pizza-you just want it. You might hear grown-ups talking about how they “need”a holiday, but this is something they would 67 instead of something they need to survive.
What do you want?
Wants are items that would be nice to have, but you can 68 them. Unlike needs, your wants will change over time. As a child you might want a new bike, but when you get a bit older you want a phone, new clothes, or even a car.
When you have some money, it's 69 that you will spend it all on the things you want. This isn't a good idea because there's a risk you won't have enough money left to pay for things you need.
Mindful spending
Unfortunately, we can't always have everything we want, at least not right away. Therefore, it is important to think twice about whether you 70 need something right now.
Getting into the habit of doing this now will make it much easier to manage money when you're grown up.
Stop and think before you spend.
