Todd: Anita, I thought we would talk about money and investments (инвестиции). Anita: OK. Todd: So, you're pretty young. Anita: Yes. Todd: And how old are you? Anita:
I am 23. Todd: 23, so that's very young. So as a young person, do you think about your future and saving and retirement (уход на пенсию)?
Anita: I think about my immediate future. I'm not too worried
about my retirement just yet, simply because I think you never know : will you retire? will you not retire? I mean, sometimes people get so caught up (увлекаться) planning for retirement and saving money for retirement and they don't get to enjoy their life. Todd: Right. But I think, like, I'm getting older. I'm 37 right, so... Anita:
That's still young. Todd: It's still fairly young, but I think everybody that's my age wishes we had started saving when we were your age.
Anita: I agree. I agree. I'm not thinking about retirement but I'm definitely (определенно)
thinking about my immediate future. What will I do after university? Because right now, I'm a graduate student (выпускник). When I was an undergraduate(студент первых курсов), I never thought about saving (сбережения). I just was worried about paying monthly bills (счета), paying my rent (арендная плата), things like that, so I was worried about having enough money to pay the current expenses (текущие расходы). I wasn't worried about savings, but now that I'm a graduate student and I'm about to finish my education, I have to think about what will I do after university. Where will I go? If I look for a job, maybe I will have to travel somewhere. Maybe there will be a period of time when I will not have
a job, so that, yes, I am worried about, so right now I'm thinking about savings for that part of my life.
Todd: Now, Anita, you're married, correct? Anita: Yes. Todd: So is finances something that you normally talk with your husband or is it something that you still are
used to doing separately and independently? Anita: No, no, no. We have joint accounts (совместный бюджет). Any financial things we discuss. Todd: Right, yeah, cause I think especially with marriage, that's probably always one of the main things is money.
Anita: You see, for me personally, I don't think how I could... I cannot imagine that I would be married to somebody and have two separate (отдельный) bank accounts: one for him and one for me. I don't think that would work for me personally. Todd: Yeah, it does actually sound strange. Anita: Because then, think about it, if you go for dinner with your husband, who pays? Todd: Right. Anita: And if it's him paying all the time, well that's not fair towards him, so I think once you're in the marriage together, once you're doing everything together, you might as well be saving and spending together as well.
Todd: You're right. That makes perfect sense, but I think in the U.S. nowadays it's common now for couples to have separate checking accounts. Anita: It is and, even my parents had that for awhile (некоторое время). I personally don't like it because
to me it seems like a back door (тайные дела, запасной выход). If somebody had two accounts and their married to me it's a way of saying, "I love you and I'm married to you, but just in case something happens to us, I've got my own account to depend on. Todd: Great point.
Anita: And to me, personally, I will do my upmost best for my relationship not to get to that point, so because I am not even taking that into consideration (принимать к размышлению), I'm not acting that way right now. Todd: Well said.
