Trust me, save it. I am 17, had a job from 14 til about 4 months ago. Only having a grand in my bank account sucks. I wasted soo much money. If i had saved it instead of buying toys, I'd have ~6k now. Save it.

how much do you have in saving? how long can you last if you lost your income source? how much do you have in the retirement fund? I can go on. there is a lot of reason to save than spending on some useless junks.

He's 15 man. I doubt if he has a retirement fund 😛

I say save it...eventually you'll need to spend it on something important (car, school, etc)

They're trying to convince you spending $500 on a single item that you don't need isn't a good idea. I'm 16 myself, and I can see where they're coming from. Some teens just don't get it though, I guess.. 😕

I got a better idea. donate it to church and become a christian. have you heard of the Pascal Wager? that's the reason you should invest in the eternal life.

:roll:

He could also donate to the Catholic church to help fund child abuse settlements :thumbsup:
 
i'm thinkin a prepaid i860 for $300 and thats it, maybe an ipod shuffle because i lack any portable audio. thats $400.

sounds good.

and for those who called me a spoiled brat; i worked for this money, i did dishes at applebees for 3 months, sure its grunt work, but i did it, and i'm spending it the way i want to spend it. not like i begged my parents for this money.
 
"What if I die tomorrow?"

Buy some sense kid. Maybe some new boxers... those skid marks are probably rough on the moms.
