Allowance/Job

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

I don't get an allowance.

Other than anything I want anytime my parents go anywhere. They still refuse to get me anything that has to do with video games, though. Oh well.

I would hope you wouldn't get one Top! :D

When I was in high school, I got $20 a week. That was for lunch money as well if I chose not to bring lunch to school. Hmm... probably should have packed lunches more often I guess!

I never got an allowence growing up. We once did something similar to what the Barclay's did in A Good and Faithful Servant. But it never lasted.

I am currently earning about $7.63 an hour doing work study for my school. It's very boring. I spend an hour monitoring the fitness center OR doing nothing.

My main job involves a lot more, but my secondary one involves me mostly just sitting in my office for a few hours doing whatever I feel like for $9.50 an hour! \:D/

I get 3.50 a week for allowance. *sighs* I have a big family so my parents can't give all of us big allowances. And I babysit 2-3 times a month.

No allowance here...never gotten one. I'll get paid if I do a big special job or something - like when we painted the fence or placed about 4 tons of rocks along the driveway. Also sometimes my dad will get a bonus from his work and give each of us kids some of it. But that's a gift, not a regular allowance. :)
