I was totally just about to ask that! But that is so true.. I see these girls at my school who aren't rich, but they have like $150 jeans on, $200+ Juicy Couture purses, $150+ Uggs.. And I feel so bad that their parents probably go into debt so they can buy their spoiled brats the latest trends!

I worked from age 15 on. I used to be involved in some 'things' that supplemented my income though. I had a convertible pick-up lowrider (SoCal style) with a custom seat built in the bed along with speakers, 2600 watt stereo system, custom paint, wheels, etc. Had '91 Mustang GT and put on 9 psi. supercharger, etc. This was during high school. My parents didn't buy me anything. The cops used to harrass me big-time.
The people who I used to be "involved" with don't have much these days (except 1 guy), but I persued a career the whole time, paid my dues so to speek. At 26 I bought my house and filled it with lots of toys. But when people know how well-off you are, they try to leech off of you. I try to be modest and act broke. My friends always expect me to pay bar-tabs and things like that because they say "cuz it's not a big deal for you!" It makes you feel used and resentful sometimes, but that makes you "selfish" somehow.
Most young people are just poseurs, acting like ballers. They live off their parents and fall on their face when reality hits and mommy don't pay no more.

I took a class to get certified as a food manager, so I have a job where I get paid over $12 an hour, which is good for a high school student. I worked hard to get certified, and being a food manager at a catering company is not easy work. I actually work for what I have. You should stop judging the youth, and stop assuming we are all spoiled brats.

Some kids babysit or work around the house doing chores. I have known parents who pay for everything from cars to cell phones.

Susan Lucci develop into asked countless years in the past approximately her "youthful" look and asked approximately plastic surgical operation, eating ordinary, and so on. She pronounced that in the beginning she likes to consume, she's Italian and pasta is her weak point. She attributed her seems to sturdy genes inherited from her mom. And specific it could take place; at 70 years previous, Lena Horne appeared 40. Sophia Loren seems large, and he or she's that previous. some human beings only get fortunate.

Most of my friends babysit or tutor younger kids! Usually their parents only give them enough money for food, and they have to find their own way to get some spending money.
