Kids- Earn up to 17 Dollars a Week in Allowance!

Hi there! I just made a power-point presentation to my allowance-givers, requesting that I get a raise from 5 dollars a week to an amazing 12 dollars a week! Pshh, you say. But they almost agreed! They’re still thinking about it though… It just required a little planning and a lot of know-how. Here are some extreme factors that you should use in your allowance pitch. Look around you at other kids allowances and see what chores they have to do to get it and what expenses they have to cover (buy there own presents and toys, or maybe their own clothes).

But remember, when talking about what other kids got, only use people who get a better deal than you! (VERY important) The new “hip” thing is to get an allowance that’s equal to your age. I can vouch for that that, along with my behind-the-scene buddy, Michael, and all his pals, except for the ones who get way more than that. And when asking for a raise, shoot higher than you want, and slowly work your way down. But it’s always nice if you get more than you want, too! Act professional, as in I did a power point presentation after doing a lot of research. Plan out what you’re going to do with your money. My friend said he’d bank 7 dollars a week and save 5 for expenditures. Also, it’s good to make a contract, so that way you’re parents can’t get out of it. But the MOST important thing to remember… DON’T SHOW THIS TO YOUR PARENTS!!!

  2. For your research, I give my kids $40/month each but $20 is deposited into their savings account. They are 14 and 12.

  5. Here's another idea: We put $20 (sometimes more!) on the table each weekend. It's up for grabs to whomever does chores (correctly! no money for poor work!). If one of our kids wants to do all the chores, they can have all the money. We've created a list of chores and their value so splitting chores and money is very predictable.

  10. I have been browsing online greater than 3 hours as of late, but I by no means
    found any fascinating article like yours. It's beautiful price enough for me. In my opinion, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you probably did, the web will probably be much more helpful than ever before.

  16. First of all I want to say awesome blog! I had a quick question
    that I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing. I've had a
    difficult time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out there.
    I truly do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are
    usually lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin.
    Any ideas or tips? Many thanks!
