coolcoolcool 893 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I have to write an essay about childhood memory/experience with money and how it shaped my perspective on money/poverty/health. I can't think of anything good to write about, I don't remember anything. All I remember was that my parents worked really hard and gave up their dreams to make money and take care of my family. And it's my first university paper so it's really important. What should I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well seeing your parents giving up on what they wanted to provide for your family, how was their relationship with money and how did it shape your outlook? Did it make you good with money or careless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's my first university paper so it's really important. What should I do? I think you should write about how watching your parents give up their dreams to make money, and maybe how that made you feel. Do you view money differently than say maybe a close friend of another family member and how has this experience shaped how you deal with money. Sorry if that doesn't make sense. It's been a long day and I should probably sleep. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aneira3019 1,017 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Just make up something realistic to meet your essay needs, I did it in high school. Actually you did say it was for Uni so I don't know if my suggestion is such a good idea but I mean, they can't exactly check if you're telling the truth or not.

Do you feel grateful towards your parents? Do you appreciate their sacrifice by being careful with money and doing your best in school to make them proud?

I imagine your parents did the same thing on a smaller scale for you, it's all about how you word it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
