Imagine getting ten dollars. Decide how much goes in each jar and say why. There is no right answer, and defending the split is the outcome.

Spend

Use it now, on something you want.

Save

Keep it for something bigger later.

Give some to someone else, or to a cause.

Spend

Because

Save

Because
