Unbelievable how much legos cost these days!

Both my son and daughter get their Age number as an allowance dollar amount. Not the most expensive allowance, but good for them at their age.

Stand strong and don’t give in! I’m kinda out of it though… isn’t a $120 leggo set a lot of money? I think I remember getting like $10-20bucks a month in high school for an allowance.

Thanks! I was waiting for the allowance that I pay my son weekly to finally pan out!

He’s been really good with money when he was younger (actually I think his mom curbed his spending habit a bit grrr), but now she’s letting him go. I finally ~~brainw~~ erh convinced her to let him learn. Trial and error, and experience is always better than hypothetical book examples.

More power to you Dad! It is tough to be the bad cop with our kids but in the long run they will be much better for it. Kudos!

Hi Jane! Good to see you out and about

I give him an allowance, just so he learns a bit about finances from his level… I’m sad, but excited because this is the first time he has went into debt. This is a great opportunity for him to learn about it… Teach them while they are young is my philosophy!
