C: Hey Jayden, I was wondering if you could do me a favour.

J: That depends. What is it?

C: It's kind of a big favour. I'm absolutely flat broke, and I owe my landlady $200. She's given me until Friday to give it to her, but I don't get paid until next Monday. Do you think you could loan me some cash until I get paid?

J: I'd love to help you out, but I'm a bit short on cash this month as well, I had to get a new engine put into my car, and that ate up my savings.

C: If you can't give me the full amount, a fraction of it would still help. I'll pay you back on Monday. I promise.

J: Let's see, I've got about $50 to get me through the weekend. I can only spare about $20. I would give you more if I had it, I just don't have much moeny to my name right now.

C: Thanks a lot Jayden. Every little bit will help. Tell you what, if you aren't doing anything tonight, why don't you come over and have dinner at my place.

J: That'd be great. Thanks! What time should I come over?

C: How about at 6pm?

J: See you then!

J: I don't know what I'm going to do! It's going to be impossible to make ends meet if I lose my job!

C: Don't worry. I don't think you're going to lose your job over one mistake.

J: It was a rather big mistake. When you work as an investment adviser, one small mistake can cost the company millions.

C: But it wasn't just you who was involved, right? You were only doing wat your supervisor told you to do.

J: That's true, but my supervisor is very dishonest. There's no reason he needs to tell our boss the truth. I'm sure he will tell our boss that it was all my fault, and there's nothing I can do about that. My boss won't believe me if I tell him the truth.

C: Let's think realistically about what might happen. How much money do you have in your savings?

J: I have enough to live off of for about 3 months. But I really don't want to spend my life savings on just living! I'd rather invest my money somehow.

C: Well, you can't have everything. Let's just figure out what you'll do if you lose your job. When is your contract up on your apartment?

J: Next month. So, I can either move out then or renew my contract for another year.

C: Well, that's good. If you lose your job, you can just move in with me until you find another job. That will save you plenty of money.l

J: That's very generous of you. I guess that would work.

C: If you lose your job, you just have to go for a few months without buying all the junk you usually buy. If you live frugally, you'll save plenty of money.

J: I guess working with so much money has made me rather greedy. Maybe losing my job would be a good thing!

L: Good morning. How can I help you?

C: I'd like to open a new account.

L: Have you filled out an application form?

C: Yes. And I've brought some documents along with me, too. Do you need to see my passport?

L: Yes. I'll just have my assistant look over these quickly and then we'll move on to the next step. Did you want to open up a checking account and a savings account?

C: Yes. Does the checking account come with a debit card?

L: Yes. Actually, both accounts come with cards that yu can use in ATM machines, so that you won't have to come in to the bank to make a transaction.

C: That's very convenient.

L: It is. Our customers really like it. Do you have any other questions about your new accounts?

C: Yes. What's the maximum amount that you are allowed to have in an overdraft?

L: The maximum is $1000.

C: Is there a penalty for having an overdraft?

L: Yes, but it's not much. You just have to pay 1% interest on the amount. It's much lower rate than any of our loans and it's much better than owing money to most credit cards.

C: That's true. Is everything alright with my documents?

L: They're all in order. If you just sign your name here, you'll receive your cards and pin numbers in the mail in about 3 weeks.

C: Thank you very much.

L: You're welcome.

C: Excuse me; I have a question about transferring money from one account to another.

L: I can help you here. Do you have the account numbers with you?

C: Yes.

L: Are they both under your name?

C: No, this account is my girlfriend's account and that one is mine.

L: Ok, and are you going to put money into your girlfriend's account?

C: Yes. Would it be possible to check my balance first?

L: Not a problem. It llks like you have $450 in your current savings account.

C: Ok, could you transfer $200 into her account then?

L: Would you like to add a narrative?

C: Sure. Could you just typ.

E: Hope this helps with your rent. Love, C.

L: That's very sweet of you. I'm sure she'll appreciate it.

C: I hope she does. I've got rent due next week myself!

L: Well, you know that you can have a $1000 overdraft on this account, right?

C: Yes. Thanks for your help.

L: you're welcome.
