Its not like my parents buy me anything except the food in the house I eat. I work almost 40 hours a week for $9 a hour w/benefits and my side job for eBay. I'm lucky enough to know how to manage my money at a young age(18). I think many young people would have more money to live a higher quality life if they realize a couple of things;moving out as soon as you are 18 is one of the worst finicial decisions you can make and they should be riding out their parents until 22 or 23 if possible (you NEVER see the rent money again,instead it could be saved for a down payment on a house). All this technology,iPods and such are waste in my opinoin because they all devalue fast and instead they money should be put into the stock market(I will venture in this area shortly).
