Passage 1

On the death of his wealthy old father, Duncan inherited a lot of money and property, but though his father had always bee n a very gen erous man, Duncan was of a very differe nt character. In fact, a lot of people who knew him called him a miser.

This was not quite right, because misers usually spend as little of their wealth on themselves as

they give away. But Duncan was not like that at all. He had always liked to feel rich; to have the best of everyth ing for himself, go to the best restaura nts, stay in the best hotels, have beautiful houses and expe nsive holidays.

Duncan had never had a job, and while his father was alive, he had at first been kept on rather a small allowa nee. Duncan had asked his father several times whether he could in crease this, but his father knew about the young man ' swaysavaga n tiis wisdom, always refused to

d lik

e to see so s moth

do so.

But the n, whe n Duncan was twenty-one, the old man, who was already sixty-five and retired, suggested that he should marry. "I 'm feeling old, ” he said to his son, “and I ' gra ndchildre n before I die. ”

Duncan was not kee n to have the expe nse of a wife, and the n childre n, but his father said, you marry, I 'll in crease your allowa nee in excha nge. ”

“ By how much? ” Duncan said. “ Wife and children cost a lot of money. ”

His father, laughed and an swered, “ it bylthietiply ”

“ All right, ” said Duncan. He already had a girlfrie nd, so he asked her to marry him, and she agreed.

But Duncan did not spe nd much of his in creased allowa nee on his wife, nor on his childre n whe n they came. His wife always smelt expe nsive, because Duncan loved to have the luxury of the best scents around him, but he did not give her any jewelry, saying that she would inherit ple nty whe n his mother died. His wife did not feel very happy about this, as Duncan only forty-five years old.

Duncan also continued to spend as much money as he could get on luxuries for himself.

One day he had just had lunch by himself at a very expe nsive restaura nt, where every dish always tasted perfect, and had walked past the doorma n, who had brought his car to the front for him, without giving him a tip.

The doorma n, who looked sple ndid in his beautiful uniform, helped him into his car and the n said politely, "Incase you lose your wallet on your way home, sir, please remember that you didn ' t pull it out of your pocket here. ”

Passage 2

Are you a compulsive spe nder, or do you hold on to your money as long as possible? Are you a bargain hunter? Would you rather use charge accounts than pay cash? Your answer to those questi ons will reflect

your pers on ality. Accord ing to psychologists, our in dividual money habits not only show our beliefs and values, but can also develop from past problems.

Experts in psychology believe that for many people, money is an important symbol of stre ngth and in flue nee. Husba nds who compla in about their wives 'spe nding habits may be afraid that they are losing power in their marriage. Wives, on the other hand, may waste huge amounts of money because they are angry with their husbands. In addition, many people consider money a symbol of love. They spend it on their families and friends to express love, or they buy themselves expensive presents because they need love.

People can be addicted to different things, for example, alcohol, drugs, certain foods, or even television. They are compulsive in their addictions, that is, they must satisfy these needs to feel comfortable. In the same way, according to psychologists, compulsive spenders must spend more money. For those who buy on credit, furthermore, charge accounts are even more exciting than money: in other words, these people feel that with credit they can do anything. Their pleasure at spending enormous amounts is actually greater than the pleasure they get from the things they buy.

There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they don 't need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budget, but they are really playing an exciting game: when they can buy something for less than other people, they are winning.

It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business. They consider people 's needs for love, power or influence, as well as their values, beliefs and opinions, in their advertising and sales methods.

Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy”to help individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money. They give them “assignments.”If a person buys something in every store that he enters, for instance, a therapist might teach him self-discipline in this way. On the first day of his therapy, he must go into a store, stay for five minutes, and then leave. On the second day, he should stay for ten minutes and try something on. On the third day he stays for fifteen minutes, asks the sales clerk a question, but does not buy anything. Soon he will learn that nothing bad will happen to him if he doesn 'tbuy anything, and he can solve the problem of his compulsive buying.
