Friendship & Money

Official Question Material
Prep: Varies

Official Audio Prompt

Complicated dance we all do when it comes to friendships and money. Having friends means going out, doing activities together, in short, spending money. All of my friends are from different backgrounds and make different salaries and have different values when it comes to saving and spending money. So I still don't know what the proper etiquette is when the bill comes. I haven't yet mastered the dance. And to make matters worse, since I moved to New York City, a lot of these insecurities have been turbocharged because this city is home to some super rich people. It's all very confusing, made nearly incomprehensible because we just don't talk about this kind of thing. I mean, not really.
