20,00 USD Ãtats-Unis Dollars = 153,100 ZAR Afrique du Sud Rands
I think $20 US dollars is a good allowance weekly for a 13 year old. Thats 153,100 South african Rands.

No kid should be getting an allowance unless they are doing something to earn it.
My kid is 15 1/2 and he gets.. NOTHING.
If he wants money, he can go get a job & earn it.. same thing I did!
