CASH



Cash is the better option to spend money. When you pay with cash is more quickly and comfortable than the credit card because you don’t need to sign or put your secret number. The other form only you need to count the exactly money and pay. In the city not all the stores have a central card; this is that when you want to pay some thing in the street some times you only can pay with cash and not with credit card. You have the control. You know what you spend. You think more about that because you see the money and then you pay. You don’t have problems when the month finish because you don’t spend a lot during the month and then you don’t need to pay much money. When you use the cash only you control your money, not the bank. Then you don’t need to pay money for use the credit card during the year. When you use the credit card sometimes you need to pay a tariff by use that. In some cases you pay per month or per year. And I think that it is very expensive to pay money for the use of credit card. To use cash isn’t more dangerous than credit card because now many people can have information about you. For example the government can know about you because the bank helps him. In the contract, when you register in a bank, the clauses said that: If the government requests information about you the bank has the right to said something about you. And the inconvenient of this is that the government can put more taxes in your count because it knows that you have a lot of money. The other example is one person who wants to know your financial situation. If this person knows about Internet or what ever, he can have access in your financial situation. In conclusion, cash is better because only you control how you want to move your money and you don’t need to pay for any service.

Bartering is one way to save money. Did you prefer to save your money or spend your money? Why?


I don't like bartering because I don’t like things that have been used by other people before. I think when you barter something you can obtain things that are broken.
But I really think that bartering is a good option for saving money because used stuff is cheaper than new things.
I prefer buying new things but maybe in sale. Or if one thing is good for me and the price is reasonable I will buy without hesitatton.
Bartering is difficult when you do that on the Internet because you don’t know how the thing is I really don’t like to do something like that. And the other option is to do the bartering with another person face to face, so we can see the things together. In this option you can see the condittion the thing is in, and say you want it or not.
Bartering is one alternative to shopping for saving money. But I want to buy new things because in Mexico they aren't very expensive. And the things that people want to barter are very old and dirty. If you do something like that you
won't get a good deal.

What do I think was the first week?


This first week was beautiful because I’m in a new city and everything here is new. This is the first time that I live alone. In the class everything is very good for learning English because all my classmates are from different countries and then we need to talk in English. The activities there were very funny and I learned a lot. The classmates were very funny too, and very interesting for many things. First there are classmates with different ages and different jobs or majors. In conclusion this first week was very interesting and left a mark in my life.
Canada is beautiful.
