I worked in HS, but I turned every paycheck over to him and he gave me $20/week. Turned out later that he put all that $$$ into investments for college, and towards a car.
But man, was I unhappy I couldn't get those Jordan's at the time, lol.

I remember I wanted a pair of Nike Air Revolutions...
...and they were like $110. My Dad said I could get them if I paid 1/2, which I did. That's what I will do much of the time my teenage daughter wants something like that, unless its just crazy. She wanted a pair of vintage Jordans that were like $400 and I told her she was crazy. She then decided on a pair of customized Cons (Chucks) that cost $120.
