I'm sorry, it wasn't for post count. I'm just in a bad place right now.

When I was younger I didn't get pocket money, I just used to get rewarded with Transformers if I did well in school.

i dont get any, I need to earn it

None, never really have. Don't really need the money anyway because if I say I'm going shopping my mum will give me money if I need it.

Some people get payed to wash up which I think is a stupid idea, should be doing that anyway. I work weekends for money.

Never really got pocket money in that sense. If i did some work i would sometimes get paid/ i sometimes sold various things for profits to other people in school.

Lol [@]@Shazzy[/@] , who gets paid to wash up? :L

Chris
28-12-2011, 11:25 AM
None, there was always an occasional bit of money given to me if I really wanted something though!

Stopped working, staying with my dads business partner. He's paying for my driving lessons and stock trading courses and I get £50 a week for toiletries and what not. I'll have it easy for the next few years :P

None, I can usually get a little bit of money if I ask for it, Although I do get paid from work also :P

Haven't had pocket money since I was like 13

Martin
28-12-2011, 05:23 PM
Used to get a little bit each week when I was like 12 but nowadays its the other way round and I'm giving money to my mum for housekeeping so it kinda balances itself out LOL :(

Never really got pocket money. I just sort of asked for money when I wanted something.

My dad keeps forgetting to cancel the £50 a month direct debit from when i was like 12, i tell him all the time. so like £50 a month?

I get my child allowance thing, which is about £120 a month I think?

But then have to pay for my own transport, clothes etc.

I get like £30 a week for travel n ****, which I usually am able to save a bit of it which would result in like £50 a month. I'd say I'm quite spoilt in that sense, but I know a guy who will have his car paid for him, his driving lessons paid for him, have his car insurance paid for him whilst he is in full time education, has a job from his dad where he creates content for his dads site (which is basically just £50-£100 a month for nothing as his dad will have to check it over anyway as the guy can't spell and not much content needs producing to begin with). So the point is, I'm not showered in money and ease of life. Infact I'd be forced to have a job by now if I didn't have an op back in february/march.

Also I know someone who really misuses his benefits. I'm not going to question the legitimacy of the benefits he recieves, but he just spends it on technology and **** and that really pisses me off. But that is slightly irrelevant.

I don't have a set amount of money I'm given each week, my parents give me it sometimes if they're feeling generous or i'm a bit skint. Although now, I get EMA and I have a job so most of the time it's not needed.

Shar

Bit too old for that now..whenever I need money I just ask for it

I get $20 a month, which is around £30 i think. But this is from my grandparents and no my mum and dad. My parents refuse to give me money seeing as i don't do much around the house.

I get $400+ every two weeks but i work, soon ill be making $1000 every week when i get my new job. Not a good idea to carry that much around though!

I never got pocket money. I'd maybe get rewards for doing well in school etc but it wouldn't be a set thing. Also I started part time working when i started sixth form and turned 16 and theres no way in hell my parents would give me money on top of a salary! since then ive had to earn my own money which is pretty much how i was brought up

Woah bad conversion there. GBP > AUD. It's slightly over £13. Sorry just had to point it out :3

I never got pocket money, parents never gave me money, neither did anyone else. My parents barely had enough money to keep food on the table each day so I had a paper round at the age of 12 to earn my weekend money then pissed off school and failed every gcse and started full time work at 16. I'm now 21 with my own 2 bedroom flat, stable career and a car.

I would still never change the way I was brought up, although my parents were always poor they made me who I am today and I love them greatly for that.

Of course.

I'm 20 and my nan still gives me £5 a week. It's something she's never grown out of. It pays for my dinner at work though.
