"A penny saved is a penny earned."

Semester: Spring

Offered: 2023

Good morning, class! Professor Twain here. Today, let's explore the saying, "A penny saved is a penny earned."

Imagine you have two coins. You can spend one and save the other. Saving is like earning because that money stays with you. It's yours to use later.

This idea is important for businesses too. Companies need to manage money carefully. They can't spend everything they make. Saving helps them grow and be strong for the future.

Now, this saying also teaches us about values. It shows that being careful with money is wise. It's a habit that many cultures respect.

In business, this means planning and making smart choices. It means not wasting resources. This helps companies succeed and contribute to the economy.

So, remember, "A penny saved is a penny earned." It's a simple idea with a big impact on our personal and professional lives.

Any questions?

"A penny saved is a penny earned."

Characters:

Linh: A student who loves to shop for new clothes and gadgets.
Nam: A student who is saving money for a motorbike.

Dialogue:

(Scene: Linh and Nam are at a coffee shop after class.)

Linh: Oh my gosh, Nam, look at these shoes online! They're so cute, and they're on sale! I think I'll buy them.

Nam: Wow, they are nice, but do you really need another pair of shoes? Remember what Professor Twain said today? "A penny saved is a penny earned."

Linh: Yeah, but these are a bargain! I'm basically earning money by buying them on sale, right?

Nam: (Laughs) Not exactly! Saving money is about keeping it, not just spending less. Think about your long-term goals. What do you really want?

Linh: Hmm, well, I do want a new phone... but these shoes...

Nam: Maybe you could put the shoe money towards your phone? It'll add up faster if you save. Like Professor Twain said, it's about making smart choices.

Linh: You're right. I always seem to be broke. Maybe I should try saving like you. You're getting pretty close to buying your motorbike, right?

Nam: Almost! It takes discipline, but it's worth it. And like Professor Twain said, it's not just about money, it's about good habits and values.

Linh: Okay, you've convinced me. No new shoes this time. I'm going to start saving!

Role-Play Dialogue: The Wise Investor

Characters:

Linh: A young student, a bit impulsive with spending.
Nam: Linh's friend, more thoughtful about money.

Dialogue:

Linh: Hey Nam, wanna grab some bubble tea? The new shop has this crazy expensive drink with ALL the toppings!

Nam: Hmm, I don't know, Linh. It's like 100,000 VND! Remember what Professor Twain said? "A PENNY SAVED IS A PENNY EARNED."

Linh: Oh come on, it's just one drink!

Nam: But think about it. If you SAVE that money, you could put it towards those new headphones you want.

Linh: True... but those are expensive!

Nam: Exactly! But every bit helps. Professor Twain said SAVING IS LIKE EARNING. It's like making money just by being careful.

Linh: Yeah, he also said something about COMPANIES NEED TO MANAGE MONEY CAREFULLY.

Nam: Right! Businesses can't just SPEND EVERYTHING THEY MAKE. They need to save to GROW and be STRONG FOR THE FUTURE.

Linh: Hmm, you're right. Maybe I should be more careful with my money. It's not just about buying stuff now, it's about PLANNING and MAKING SMART CHOICES.

Nam: Exactly! And it's not just about money, it's about VALUES. Professor Twain said that BEING CAREFUL WITH MONEY IS WISE.

Linh: Okay, okay, you've convinced me! No bubble tea today. I'll start SAVING FOR THE FUTURE!
