I had a 200 dollar car at his age and when it broke down walking to work sucked in the winter especially. I learned right quick to keep extra money around after that.

Working on it, he's not had job too long and car expenses need to be paid first then i am charging him and setting aside. He's already been warned way in advance he'd be paying to stay here. Need to open another account and put money in there. He's seen price of rent around here and already knows he can't afford that on his own. Told him wait until gets steady girlfriend if he thinks has plenty of money now.

Just yesterday we openned an account for our 15yo son in preparation of a part time job. We openned one for our daughter a while back when she got her part time job and she's been saving and doing a little spending all along. She pays for the increase in our car insurance and her gas.

Same here, he's had account for many years already. I spotted him insurance and gas and what nots until gets on feet then he's 100% responsible for it(has his own policy as it would have drove mine threw the roof). I already slapped his phone bill on his desk and said have fun.
