  2. Well it is by no doubt to me that many South Africans especially the youth dont know how to use money wise, hence there was this show on SABC 1 where they tried to get people out of depth. If we could all start to stop living our lives to impress others then things will be better.

  5. I like the point were you say "There is no harm in enjoying your hard earned money but there is no reason to destroy a well-established future". As young people we tend to forget that in order to have money you have to work hard.
