Money & Finance

Phrasal verbs for financial matters

Introducción

El dinero mueve el mundo, y los phrasal verbs nos ayudan a hablar de él. Nos dedicamos a "save up" (ahorrar) para grandes compras, "pay off" (saldar) deudas, esperamos no "run out" (quedarnos sin) fondos, y de vez en cuando nos "rip off" (timan) con malas ofertas.

Este capítulo cubre los phrasal verbs de las finanzas personales: ganar, gastar, ahorrar, y las diversas formas en que el dinero entra y sale de nuestras vidas.
