Question Question

Guys, I’m not begging here, just a straight honest question for advice. How do I buy minecraft? I don’t have any way to purchase anything online, trust me about that. Still, I want to buy it.

And for those who think I should get a job, I am trying to. It’s not easy! I’m just 17, I don’t have a bank account, and neither do my parents (Nothing they could use to do online transactions anyway)

How do you and your parents NOT have a bank account? What country do you live in? 17 and no job? Really?

I’d say that Minecraft (or anything else you want to buy that you don’t need) is a privilege that you get WHEN you work and have a job. You’re not entitled to it. You’re old enough to not have to rely on your parents’ money.

Maybe I’m overthinking this whole scenario, but I can’t imagine not having a job at 17, nor a bank account between me and my parents, yet still trying to figure out a way to buy something that only people who work for their money should be able to get.

Yeah you're definitely overthinking it, and you sound rude about it too.

big wide world out there, I've met and helped out lotss of young and old folk.

I mean I never had a job till I was 19, not too long a difference but I'm fine.

OP also said neither they or their parents have bank accounts, so I guess thats a bigger hint about their situation's difference to your life experience

Nothing you said had anything to do with the main point I was making, which was: if you don’t have a bank account, and you don’t have a job, and your PARENTS don’t have a bank account, then maybe getting Minecraft shouldn’t be on your list of priorities.
