Becky is airy, somewhat spoiled, and very impulsive. She is bubbling with excitement and obsessed with shopping. Becky's excitement and obsession with shopping combined with her access to large quantities of money and impulsive nature lead to some very questionable financial decisions.
Question 3
If I were advising Becky, this is how I would divide her wants and needs:
Needs
Food
Water
Shelter
clothes (reasonably priced)
Wants
Designer clothes
Credit cards
Becky seems to think that designer clothes and credit cards belong in the "Needs" column, but really those things are "Wants."
Question 5
Although the movies ending isn't realistic in a literal sense (with mannequins applauding her and all), I think that it is pretty realistic theoretically. I think it makes sense that Becky would be able to resist her urge to shop easier if she was in a serious relationship with the man of her dreams. Especially because one reason he likes her is because she was able to manage all of her debt and beat her shopping addiction by selling her nice clothes.
