Writing Prompt ~ A Piece of Advice
Dear Nicky,
I know you're facing a harsh economic time as your father stop paying you a fat allowance since last month. To minimize your money difficulties I want to tell you some advice that worked for me when I was alone and out of money while studying and working in Hong Kong. The first piece of advice I'd suggest you is to take away all is superfluous from your budget. You know, what looked like necessary some time ago, now, it becomes really unnecessary. The second step is to work out your basic expenditures like dwelling, transport, clothing and food, based on what you earn on your work as a trainee. Try to pay firstly these debts anyways! This is most important advice because it keeps you with a minimum life quality. The next step is to plan any special spend you might have in the future like a friend's party at the end of semester or a travel on business. That extra events should be planned beforehand so that you don't have to tight your basic budget for long time. Last, but not least, remember to take seriously my previous pieces of advice. And a word of advice: "A friend in need is a friend indeed." You can always count on me if you need!
Your friend, Daniel
