Ⅰ. Read the passage and choose the best answers.
When 15-year-old Mia started a small online business selling handmade bracelets, she had no idea it would teach her so much about money. At first, she spent all her money on materials, thinking more products would mean more sales. But after a month, she had only sold a few bracelets, and she was left with a lot of unsold stock.
Mia’s dad, who worked in finance, sat down with her to help her. They made a simple budget: calculate the cost of materials, set a reasonable price, and save a little money from each sale for unexpected costs. “I thought budgeting was just for adults, but it’s actually for anyone who wants to be smart with money,” Mia said.
Soon, Mia’s business improved. She learned to buy materials in small amounts based on orders, and she even started putting 10% of her profits into a savings account. By the end of the year, she had enough money saved to buy a new camera she’d wanted for years.
Mia says her small business taught her more about money than any lesson in school. “Money isn’t just about spending it,” she said. “It’s about planning, saving, and making choices that help you grow.”
