Reply To: Do Teens Deserve an Allowance?

I never did have an allowance until I turned 18 and that was with my own bank accouny. I had to learn money mannagement skills and make sure I didn’t go into overdraft. But if I ever need help, even until today my parents are always there for me to help through the rough times. As a teenager, I’m not sure if you should be getting an allowance , but you should learn how to deal well with money so that when you come to a point where you have to make decissions on your own you have more stable background and experience than someone who is just learning the ropes for the first time at age 17 or 18.
