Question number three. Darrell, when you sold your house and stopped drinking, I thought you had decided to stop living beyond your means. Laura. Hmm. Then I bought a Ferrari started gambling and began attending wild parties every night. Oh yeah.

Which answer below is the opposite of the green words above. A begin a life of good deeds. Be. start living within your means. See, make more financial mistakes. Take a moment.

Pause the video, look through the answers, review the conversation and answer the question which answer below is the opposite of the green words above. Okay, here comes the answer in 54321 See, make more financial mistakes? Hmm. First off, we need to make sure we're focusing on the opposite. The opposite meaning of the green words above, stop living beyond your means. This is actually a good thing, because it means you're stopping living in a way that you can't afford that you can't pay for.

So we're looking for the opposite of that, since stop living beyond your means would be a good thing. We need to look for an answer, which would be a bad thing. And the only answer, which is a bad thing would be make more financial mistakes. That's the opposite of stopping living beyond your means. so in this situation, they're all thought that Laura was going to improve her decision making she sold her house. She stopped drinking, she stopped doing things that probably made her financial situation, not So good.

However, Laura has other ideas by Ferrari, start gambling and go to wild parties every night. Doesn't seem like a great decision. So the opposite of stop living beyond your means is to make more financial mistakes. Let's take a look at the wrong answers. A begin a life of good deeds. deeds are another word for actions behavior.

So if you do good deeds, you do things that help people create value for people could be donating money building some house for someone, helping someone with their school loans. Who knows. So a life of good deeds is to do good things. However, this isn't the opposite of what we're looking for. And it doesn't make a lot of sense with the conversation. So it is wrong.

Be start living within your means. Whoo. That's actually a good thing to start living with. Even inside your ability to pay for things within your means. So living within your means is the opposite of living beyond your means. And up here it says to stop living beyond your means, which is a good thing.

And this one says start living within your means, which is also a good thing. So that's why B can't be right because we're looking for the opposite. So the best answer is C. Make more financial mistakes.
