     As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by

society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it's not easy to

change later in life. Financial experts say that every one also has their own belief of how to manage their

money. According to our different values, experts put us in three categories. They are: the ant, the cricket

and the snail.

◆The ant - works first

     Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don't

care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy

life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks(股票) with low risk.

◆The cricket - fun first

     The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future. They even

borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These

people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance(保险).

◆The snail - lives under pressure

     The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans(贷款)

from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though

they are not sure they can afford it. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.
