How much allowance do you get?

Do we really have that many youngins on the board? I got an allowance off and on throughout my childhood. Don't remember exact figures though.
 
21 years old. I get what I make at work, that is, about $100 a week. Sounds good, but it disappears really fast what with college and all.
 
I never got allowance until I turned 16 and my parents made me quit a job that I loved (working at Infiniti). Instead of bringing home ~200 a week driving around nice cars, they told me i was going to quit either way and offered me $50 a week, so I said ok fine.

I got $200 a month until I was 12, then it got bumped up to $300/month. Now that I'm 23, I get about $500/month in allowance.

Damn boy lucky. You must of had all the good toys when you were younger.
 
I never got an allowance. Now that I am a parent, I wish my parents would've given me an allowance... I feel there are lessons learned that I missed out on.

My kids, on the other hand, get $.50 x their age, per week.
 
Back in HS (14-18), got about 20/wk for doing dishes, yard work, etc. my parents made me work for it. in college, about 400/mo with a part time job for spending money (18-22). after college, well, lets just say a lot more than in college 😛 (22+)
