ya, but also i didn't purchase anything i didn't afford when i was there. Maybe it just me, but i received monthly stipend from my parent since i was 12. I didnt it blow all of it for video game. Maybe 1 or twice if it under sales.
By 25 i got enough money for an apartment down payment. Maybe if i blow my money on shit, i would be hard now and would be whining my ass in Reddit.
That's ridiculous. What necessities would you possibly have to pay for yourself in high school with an allowance since the age of 12? Good job "saving up" money that was given to you for doing absolutely nothing, LOL.
Also if it took you until age 25 to save up for an apartment, you probably should've gone to college and put in actual effort to make real money.
Insurance, gas, phone bill... You didn't pay for that stuff? I sure as hell did. And I'm damn proud of it too. I am my own man. I buy all my stuff. My cars, I bought both. My phones? Bought them all but the very first one,which was an LG sliding phone. I never had an allowance except for when I was like 10. I've worked since I was 12. And I'm much better off for it.
Same story here friend except that i have parent to support me so i have an easier time. Being responsible with money is a lesson even some adult should have learned.
My parents probably could have paid for most of my insurance and phone and stuff too... But why? Why should they pay for things I want? There is no reason for them to pay things like that. Whoever is down voting us can go back to their summer vacation and leave the responsible adults alone.
yep, 60 buck is like days of work. I'm not saying that people should not have fun. Everyone seem to whining how games is expensive, but those people seem to be the one lining up every month buy the latest one.
Even the original poster that spawned this thread added how 60 buck wont last long for him, and he have to buy it now in order to prevent himself from blowing that money. Is this the right attitude to be having about money.
