    How much did you get for your allowance, and when did you stop taking money from your parents and start working for your own money?

    Honestly I think Hafizah completed within her budget if you exclude her expenditure on treating her friends dinner, buying snacks for the family and gifting her niece.
    Last time secondary school so poor who does this kind of treating and usually if parents ask you to buy food, they'll give extra money.
    Very weird to be stingy now

    Actually, I think none of them really “broke” the rules for this challenge. Cause during secondary school, we don’t really pay for our own doctor fees, meals, buying toys for our family. Students simply buy recess meal that cost $5< then head home for lunch and dinner.

      @xuannnz. 3 года назад +6

      i didnt factor in parents money and insurance in my spendings and i spend around $500-$600 as well so i think its a reasonable amount? and i think chow is someone who can cook so she prolly saves some money on that too.
      also, if you made up your mind to be thrifty, $500 is totally enough for a month, so that might be chow. Spending $1k on clothing and entertainment etc is definitely not the acts of someone who is thrifty - not trying to be rude but idk how to make it sound nicer, but yes essentially my point is those things are "wants" and definitely can be adjusted according to different individuals.

    Wow, they have such big allowances! Mine is $20 but that is pocket money that I have to work for, if I don’t work for it then I don’t get any money. They really spend a lot of money, I am shocked. For lunch I usually have a packed lunch which my parents will pay for (I pay if I buy food at school). Then I don’t pay for any transportation because I will walk home from school and my parents drive me places I need to go. On weekends maybe I will go to the mall and I will spend like $8 of my money on bubble tea and then I will save up the rest of my money and use it like once a month to buy clothes or to go out and do things with friends. I’m jealous that they have so much money that they can spend on fun things as a teenager.

    $150 to $200 you're so generous, when I was in secondary school I got $1.25 per day! Time has changed, good for you Jess for being generous! LMAO

      I get $80 (around $90 after inflation) a week back in JC, but the downside is I pay for everything myself. Things like hanging out with friends over the weekends, transport, lecture notes, shopping and obviously food for breakfast and lunch.
      It made me learn how to save my money/ spend on things I only need as I have to pay for everything myself and not rely on my parents.
