I'm 16 years old, i have 2 jobs, AND i get a steady allowance. I just got a really good paycheck so with it, i plan to buy a Nintendo DS. Sure, it seems like a waste, but like i said before, i'm 16. I'm allowed to splurge on stupid things. It's what 16 year olds do. My mom always makes me put 20-25% of my check in the bank to save up for trips, a car, college, etc. and it just so happens that she doesn't want me to get the DS. When she realized that with the extra 70-75% i would have out of my check i could still get the DS, she changed the amount!
That is a load of BS!!! She claims that i need to save up for a 600+$ trip that i have coming up in MARCH-APRIL time! As i said before, i have 2 jobs and a steady allowance. I also have close to 400$ in my bank account. If i can't save up 200+$ in close to 9 months, that would be extremely sad. I actually did all the math and i will end up with 2000 something dollars if i don't spend a penny between now and then. More than enough, huh? And that's not counting this 160$ setback.
It is my own money that i worked long and hard to earn so i don't think my parents should be dictating what i do with it. It's just frustrating.
Just needed to vent. Thanks for reading!
