V. Read the passage carefully and then answer the questions
Are you a compulsive spender, or do you hold on to your money as long as
possible? Are you a bargain hunter? Would you rather use charge accounts
than pay cash? Your answers to these questions will reflect your personality.
According to psychologists, our individual money habits not only show our
beliefs and values, but can also stem from past problems.
Experts in psychology believe that for many people, money is an important
symbol of strength and influence. In addition, many people consider money
a symbol of love. They send it to their family and friends to express love, or
they buy themselves expensive presents because they need love.
According to psychologists, many people are compulsive spenders; they feel
that they must spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is irrational
- impossible to explain reasonably. Their pleasure in spending enormous
amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from the things
they buy.
There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of
course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive
bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they do not need just
because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their
budgets, but they are really playing an exciting game: when they can buy
something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning.

Psychologists often use method called "behavior therapy" to help individuals
to solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people
who feel that they have problems with money: they give them
"assignments". If a person buys something in every store he enters, for
instance, a therapist might teach him self-discipline in this way: on the first
day of his therapy, he must go into a store, stay five minutes and then leave.
On the second day, he should stay for ten minutes and try something on. On
the third day, he stays for fifteen minutes, asks the salesclerk a question, but
does not buy anything. Soon he will learn that nothing bad will happen to
him if he does not buy anything, and he can solve the problem of his
compulsive buying.
