▶ Your Answer : Some people say that university students should be supported financially by their parents. This is because university students have to concentrate on their studies. However, I strongly believe that they should support themselves with part-time jobs because it will help them to manage their own money and make them be more prepared for their future career. To begin with, supporting oneself with part-time jobs would make it easier to manage one's money. According to the statistics by the Financial Supervisory Service, upper 70% of people with bad credit are university students. This is becasue they have no idea of the value of money.

However, when she became a university student, she was short of money, so she started to work part-time, serving the tables at one restaurant to pay for living expenses. When I met her again just few weeks ago, I was very shocked at seeing totally different her. She tried to save money! She said to me that she learned the value of hard-earned money. Indeed, it is advisable for university students to work for part-time for the cost of living as well as tuition. Second, making money on their own to support themselves will make students experience future business world in advance. As we all know, these days, experiences are more crucial than paper qualifications in many recruiting processes. Thus, with working part-time, people can efficiently build their career. In addition, they will know about the difficulties and thus, they will be able to get over the difficulities more efficiently. Therefore, if university students support themselves, they can be more prepared for their future career.

Second, it helps them understnad future business world. In this regard, I believe that university students should support themselves with part-time jobs. |
