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, onc small mistake can cost the company millions.

C: but it wasn’t just you who was involved, right? You were only doing what your supervisor told you to do.

J: that’s true, but my supervisor sis 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, 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.

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!

我真不知道該怎么辦!我要是丟了工作，一定會入不敷出的。

別擔心，我覺得你不會因為只犯一次錯就丟掉工作的。

可真的是個大失誤，如果你是投資顧問，那么即使是一個很小的失誤也會造成公司上百萬的損失。

不過，這事又不是只歸你一個人負責，對吧?你只是做了你上司吩咐你做的事而已。

這倒是事實，可是我上司可不是個誠實的人。他不可能跟我們老板說實話。我敢肯定，他會跟老板說全是我的錯，而臥也根本什么都做不了。就算我跟老板說實話他也不會相信的。

那咱們模擬想象一下接下來會發(fā)生什么。你有多少存款?

大概有足夠支持我生活三個月的。可是我真不想把存款都花在日常生活上。我想做點投資。

嗯，你不可能什么都占著。咱們算算如果你失業(yè)了該怎么辦。你房租的合同什么時候到期?

下個月。所以，我要么搬出去，要么再續(xù)簽一年的合同。

哦，那好辦了。如果你被炒了，你就搬過來和我一起住，知道你找到新工作。這樣可以幫你省一筆錢。

你真是太慷慨了。我覺得這樣行得通。
