This is fifth day of the chinese new year

And it carries aa special meaning

I'm sure

A lot of you have been sharing images of the god of wealth on social media today

Because according to traditional beliefs

This is today that we're supposed to welcome the god of wealth into our homes

今天是大年初五

传统里接财神的一天

从今天一大早就开始看到很多人在温馨的朋友圈里晒出各种不同版本的财神形象

财神or literally translated into god of wealth or god of prosperity

Apparently they come in all directions

Mainly five center

East

Westing

North and self th

They're in ge ge different aspects of wealth

For example

Some of them are or collecting treasures

Valvalules

Ls proprofitability or generally attracting wealth

So in today's episode let focus on money and wealth

今天酒管理我们就要来谈谈财

In the early days

I have done two episodes on the topic of money

But those were very basic and quite short episodes

So today we're going to expand on that and share with you more expressions ons riches and wealth

And also we're going to take a look at some of the most common saes and provers in english

So on with today's show first of all

Let me give you a list of words

Now listen carefully cash buck quit funds capital

Riches

Bacon green

Dogh didn't quite catch that

I will do it again

Cash buck quit funds capital riches

Bacon green endough all of these words mean money one way or another in english

Liking chinese

There re's so many different expressions

People use in daily conversation

Formal or informal to refer to money for instance the word dogh dough originally

It means the flower

You use to make bread 做面包用的面团叫做doough

But because dogh is related to bread

And bread is a daily necessity

So in slam

People to worword doe to refer to money

Same idea you have bacon to bring home

The bacon it means to bring home

Money to support your family

嗯

This is the flexibility of language

There are always more ways to say things for instance when you're learning chinese

You learn 一元五角

You use yn and 角

But in daily conversation very rarely

You would hear people say 一元五角

People would just say 一块五in the same logic in english speaking countries

It is the same for example

In american english instead the same dollars

People often say buck buck to me dollar

And in british english instead of saying pound

People can say quit

Quid

Quit

And in british english

You also hear people say this cost a fiver or a tenner

A fiverer is five pound and tenner is ten pound

And in both british english and american english

You hear people say all this cost me five grand

So here a grand means one thousand dollars or one thousand pounds grand these datday expressions

The best way to pick them

Momois is to maximize your input by reading more

Listening more materials and watching more materials

And you learn it naturally

So those were different ways of saying the word money saince is about god of wealth

Let's talk about how to express i have money

怎么样说有钱

The very simple word you learned are things like rich or wealthy

But there are so many different ways in english to express similar meaning

You can say i am comfortable

Here comfortable

If you're talking about money

It means maybe i'm not super rich

But i live a very comfortable life

And i can afford things that i want

生活舒适

不用为钱发愁

I'm comfortable

Usually if people want to be nozy and ask me

How much i earn

I would tell them i'm comfortable

Give them a very vague answer and instead of saying rich

You can also well words like well to do or well off

You can say he is well wordo or well to off

This means rich but not superrich all ternatively

You can say someone is flush with money

Flush Flsh

This means they have enough

They have a lot of so flush with money

They have a lot of money in slaan lingu 里

There is a very common expression

Loaded

Loaded

So if you say oh

He's loaded

That means he is super wealthy

We can also use this obviously in a jokey way

You can say you bought another new car

You must be loaded

These are common expressions

But sometimes when we look at people like jack mah or middle eastern prince

People who are so so rich

We can say they are falthy rich or stinking rich

This

This is very interesting

Because falthy

Filth

Why this means dirty

But here it doesn't really carry a negative meaning

It's more as a joke

When you say he's thathy rich or thinking rich is more like all why can't

And i have what he has

羡慕嫉妒恨的这种感觉说

哎

这个人富德流油

He is fathy rich or she is stinking rich

Now they're different types of money

There's the money you are

There's the money that you are born with so some people they're lucky enough to be born in very wealthy family

Then you can say he or she is from money and that means there are from rich family

八 By far

We will be looking at very much spoken language in written language

You might also see words like affluent

Affluent

Affluent

Basically means

Wealthy

But is more written

So you can say they are from an affluent family

Affluent family 赋予dtting 啊

And talking about business

Sometimes you use the word prospers

Prosperous

Prospers usually is talking about a group of people

An area or business 是兴旺繁盛的意思

So she has a prosperous new business for example

We can also wish other people a prosperous new year

The namform for prospers is prosperity

This is also why we can call sesion got of wealth or god of prosperity

So we have just taken a look at different ways to say money

And different ways to say someone is rich

Now let's look at ten most common says about money

Saying number one money talks very simple

If you believe in the power of money

In chinese you would say 有钱能使鬼推磨

In english you say money talks basically money is power

And it gives you power to do pretty much anything you want

The same number two says a fool and his money are soon part it

A fool and his money are soon part it

So if you're not smart

If you're stupid

Then you're not going to keep your money for very long

Even if you have it

You will lose it very very quickly

本人呢

有钱留不住

A fool and his money are soon part it 就是coming onto number three

You know when you are growing up

Older people especially your parents always tell you that it's very difficult to earn money

And they will tell you 钱也不是大风刮来的

A same number three means something similar

It is money doesn't grow on trees

Money doesn't grow on trees

It means it's quite difficult to make money

But how to make money and how to keep money like in chinese

There are many things that are offering different tips

Saying number four is a tip from shakesphere

第四句

Like the shashbeyond neither a borrower

Nor a lander be neither a borrower

Nor a landder be it basically means do not borrow money from people

And do not lend money

Money and is is a smart way

Saying number five says

A penny saved is a penny earned

A penny saved is a penny earned

So saving money is earning

Money sounds familiar

This is a tip or not wasting money

Similarly saying number six says

If you look after the pennies

The pounds will look after themselves

One hundred pennies would make a pound

So if you look after the pennies

Meaning

If you look after small amount of money and save them

The pounds will look after themselves

You will eventually have a large sum of money

积少度shchdo

If you look after the pennies

The pounds will look after themselves

A byfar we're looking at saving money and don't land or borrow

But of course you also need to invest

Saying number seven is tip on investstment ying

Ying

Put all your eggs in one basket

Don't put

Put your eggs in one basket

Meaning do not rely on one opportunity

Try to find multiple opportunities

啊哈

Say number eight tells you nothing ventured

Nothing gained

This means if you don't take risks

You might get nothing

不冒险就没有收获

有点像我们的不入虎穴焉得虎子

This can serve as an investment tip obviously hirer risks might lead to higher returns

嗯

Now we're coming to the last two says about money

And these two are general attitudes towards money

Number nine says

Money is a good servant but a bad master

A good servant but a bad master

If we can make money work for us

That's very good

But if we let money rule our lives

They become terrible masters

金钱吃谱

Shammaaster

It's all about how you see it and how you

You use it

The last saying of the day is very similar to something that we saying chinese

This is you can't take it with you

When you die or when you go

You can't take it with you

Basically we can't take any of our wealth with us

When we leave this world

生不带来死不带去

Those were the tent common sense about money in english

In the end

I just want to say in the new year perhaps a lot of us are still going to try very hard to make more money

That we're still going to have money related anxiety still gona be anxious about money

We perhaps will still be jealous of people who are stinking rich

Fortunately the best things in life are free and all depends on your own perspective

And on that note on the fifth day of the chinese new year

Let me wish every one of you

A very happy and prosperous new year

I'll see you next time

Bye
