41. What happened when the author bought anything with her accumulated money?

My parents have always raised me to be very money-conscious, so I guess, in that sense, they are rather untraditional. Since I was a little girl, if I ever wanted to purchase anything, my parents would sternly(嚴厲地) remind me of the value of every cent, prompting me to spend my pocket money only when necessary. My mom actually came up with a system that we strictly abide (遵守)by in regards to money-spending. She gives me a certain amount of allowance(津貼) every month, and whenever I buy anything with my accumulated(積聚) money, I keep track of my receipts and record it in a little notebook, essentially a tiny version of my mom’s own accounting booklet.
     Being in control of my own money has really taught me to be careful in how I spend my money, giving me a sense of responsibility and ownership over it.
     As for earning money, aside from my allowance, my parents never really encouraged me to go out and find a job at typical American occupation locales(現場), such as restaurants or clothing stores. Instead, they would prefer that I spend my time focusing on my schoolwork, which I guess is where my parents become more traditional. Yet I still earn money here and there in little jobs, such as teaching students at my school, and of course, writing for the paper.
     Though I have several friends already working, I am pretty happy with my current situation. I am able to focus on my studies, all the while earning quite a bit of money, and also learning monetary (貨幣的) skills that are crucial to survival in the real world, and for that I am grateful.
