Day 83 of 135

Day 83: Her First Share of Snack Stock

At home, ten-year-old Hayun (A) comes to her mother (B) with her piggy bank and a plan she learned about at school.

How to study this lesson 4 steps
  1. Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
  2. Read the dialogue line by line with its translation, until every line makes sense. Still learning Hangul? Tick Romanization to see how each line sounds, but read the Korean first.
  3. Download the Anki deck below and review it every day. It has every line of today's dialogue. Review earlier decks too when Anki asks you to.
  4. Spend at least 30 minutes listening to native Korean, for example from the Resources page. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet.

Dialogue

Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.

    Become an owner, huh? So which company do you want to own?

    Oh, aren't you clever? That's a decent reason. But to buy shares you need an account first. I can help you, but first you have to pass a test.

    You explain it to me. What a share is and why that company. Pretend I'm the investor and you're giving the presentation. I'm going to grill you.

    Um... A share is a company cut into really tiny pieces. If you buy a piece, you become one of the company's owners.

    My piece is worth more. And when there's a profit, they sometimes share it with the owners. They called that a dividend.

    Wow, you know more than I do. Now the most important question. That company's shares cost about 98,000 won each. But what if the price falls?

    It might not go back up. If people eat fewer chips, or potatoes get more expensive, the company struggles. Then the 98,000 won you put in, your principal, could turn into 70,000.

    Seventy thousand? The principal is my money, right? So twenty-eight thousand just disappears?

    It's not gone until you sell, but it'll hurt a lot. Your first investment could turn out to be a bitter lesson. Still want to do it?

    Some companies do, but not for one share. Not a chance. And write down the share price in a notebook once a month. Don't rush to sell just because it drops, either.
