听力原文: If you are in your twenties, you own your first car, your career is more or less launched, and you are starting looking forward to owning a home, but you're worried, too. Perhaps you've got some debt. You probably don't have much in the way of savings. And without your expenses, it doesn't look like you will be able to improve the situation soon. If you wonder how to cut corners, there's an obvious place to look, at your spending habits. Do you buy a soda each weekend? Waste one dollar a day for forty years and when you set to retire, you find your account short by one hundred and ninety thousand dollars. Grab the calculator and you discover that over forty years going out to dinner twice a month at forty dollars each time, a month to have a million. Even a pack-a-day cigarettes habit will lighter your retirement account by three hundred and thirty thousand dollars. And the same with cable TV. And those cool earrings. They will probably amount to as much as one million. So, the first clue to accumulating wealth is to focus on your spending habits. Here are a couple of tricks to help you save even if you swear you can't afford to. Start buying things that fall rather than rise in value, pay yourself first. Before you pay the monthly bills, send 25 dollars to a mutual fund. Stop spending coins. From now on, spend only paper currency and keep the change every day. Get your family involved, and you'll double your savings. Use discount tickets at the supermarket, but use them correctly. How? If you really want to make these tickets worthwhile, you actually must invest into your mutual fund the amount you save by using the tickets. Otherwise, you're wasting your time and your money.
