how do i get my dad to buy a new laptop for me a.s.a.p?

Question

he promised to get one for me but it has been like 4 months??? and yeah..and which brand should i buy?

Answer 1

I purchased one for my son, however he had to earn the payment for it every month. I had him cleaning offices with me and paying him for his time. His laptop paid off in 3 years and with the interest that the finance company wanted. He worked himself to death and about drove me nuts.
I believe if you want something bad enough you will work a deal with your dad to pay for it yourself and you will find that it means more than if he just gives it to you.
Talk with him about getting the laptop and you working for him for the payment every month. It's a commitment, but I think you will learn more and appreciate finances more than if you just beg for it.
Try Dell, they still are the best and Toshiba has a great one.
Remember with every dollar you purchase and finance you have to pay a finance charge and that is paid first before the principal.
You will come out appreciating money and financial documents if you follow this advice.

Answer 2

Give him every reason to reward you.. Start doing chores without being asked.. Help with anything.. Do some minor repairs.. Do all your homework.. If you want to be respected and gain the new laptop.. make it worth it for Dad to shell out the money for it.. Respect earns respect.. Also you will feel better about a device gained with effort than getting a freebie just cause you are a kid and think its parents job to buy you anything..

Answer 3

Hmmm, talk to him???

Maybe consider putting in half the money to show responsibility.

Answer 4

Ask your dad to buy laptop everyday, every minute, every second..

Answer 5

I just explained and PROVED that I needed it for school (College).
