My dad feels I'm becoming more responsible

I've been saving most of my allowance and he's very impressed with me. Now he wants to hire an architect to help me design my dream home. My life is way too easy.

How much is your allowance?! :o

SW-User

@KiwiDan 100/day. I spend maybe 20.

KiwiDan · 31-35, M

@SW-User Wow that's a lot. My budget is $30/day over 14 days

SW-User

@KiwiDan It's not huge, but considering I get everything else for free.

KiwiDan · 31-35, M

@SW-User You're lucky.

SW-User

@KiwiDan No money struggles. That's for sure.

KiwiDan · 31-35, M

@SW-User I envy you in that.

SW-User

@KiwiDan What does you 30/day need to cover?

KiwiDan · 31-35, M

@SW-User My lunch for the day plus anything else I want to buy. I usually budget for known expenses and the amount I have left over to spend for the fortnight tends to work out around $30/day unless there's something really big coming out

SW-User

@KiwiDan That's not too bad.

KiwiDan · 31-35, M

@SW-User It's not, until I get depressed and then start spending lots

SW-User

@KiwiDan Cheer up!

KiwiDan · 31-35, M

@SW-User I try, but sometimes my brain is determined not to give me the chemicals I need to do that.

@SW-User your allowance is bigger than many paychecks including mine

SW-User

@KiwiDan May your chemicals return.

@1490wayb Really? $1400 every 2 weeks seems low these days.
