The problem is that Brad spends his money too fast. He buys many toy robots. When his friends ask him to see a movie, he has no money for a ticket.One day, Brad's mum says, "You should make a budget." Brad asks, "What's that?"His dad says, "It's a plan for your money. You put your money into different parts—for toys, for snacks, and more. You only spend what you plan to spend. Then you will have money for different things.""That sounds good!" says Brad. "Can you help me make one?"That night, Brad makes a budget with his parents. They make parts for snacks, toys, movies, and books. They also make two special parts: one for helping other people, and one for saving.From then on, Brad always has enough money. At the end of the year, he gives $80 to an old people's home. Helping others makes Brad happy. He also uses some saved money to buy a small robot. That makes him happy too.
