Should Students Earn Money During School Holidays?

In spite of what a lot of ancient and modern philosophers are fond of saying, money remains a very important factor in our lives. I am sure that if we can, we would like to live without money. However the world order, as it stands today, runs on money. Money is a good thing, is the principle on which life goes on, in spite of loud speeches to the contrary. If we accept that, then no age is too young to learn the value of it. And what greater way to learn the value of money than by earning some?

During the holidays, we are expected to rest and go for vacations of course. But we could build it into the schedule to spend at least some time earning money. We are living in a land of opportunity and there are many holiday jobs available. Naturally we should not be so greedy for moncy that we sell our souls. Simple and honest jobs are available in plenty.

The earning of money during the holidays will make us feel proud and give us a sense of confidence that we have a few dollars in our pockets of money that we have earned ourselves. The struggle of earning that money will teach us to appreciate money more and make us thrifty. It is good to learn the value of thrift while we are still students.

Finally the jobs that we do will build confidence in us so that we learn to work with others, rather than just live in ivory towers on parental support. It will also give us an understanding on what our parents go through to bring home the bread. It is my opinion that earning money during the holidays, through honest work, is good for students. On top of earning some spending money, it will also make us more responsible and independent.
