23. Economics: Costs and Benefits People need to make wise choices about how to spend their money. They need to weigh the cost of something against the benefits of having it. Cost is how much a person pays for something either in money, time, effort, or the like. Benefits are things that help people or are good for them. For example, imagine you had to choose between spending a dollar for twenty balloons or putting a dollar in the bank to collect interest. At first, it may seem that it is better to buy the balloons. The balloons will make you happy right away. But over a period of time, your dollar will be worth more as you earn interest. So, even though you do not have the benefit of spending the money right away, you will have even more money to spend in the future.
