💸 Talking about Money and Future Plans

Money Words you need for A2 Instead of complex finance terms, focus on these basic words from the text:
- Worth The value of something (Example: It is worth $2 trillion).
- Debts Money that you owe to someone else.
- Shares Small pieces of a company that people buy.
Comparing Sizes Notice how the text uses 'the biggest' and 'one of the ten biggest'.
When you see -est at the end of a word (like big biggest), it means it is number one in that category. This is a key skill for A2 learners to describe the world.
