The value of money

October 17, 2012 DN

 

Jack: I was really really good today right?

me: You were. I was really proud of you.

Jack: (Bambi eyes)

 

me: Why don’t we go to the store and I’ll let you pick something out?

Jack: Yayyy! Wait. What’s my spending limit?

me: I don’t know. 5 bucks?

Jack: 5 bucks??!! I can’t even get a little lego guy for that! How about 20?

 

me: We’ll see. I’m hovering around 10.

Jack: What if I want to spend more than that?

me: You’ll have to use your own money.

Jack: My allowance?

me: Or from your bank.

Jack: Well, since I don’t have anything to do with my bank money these days, I’ll spend whatever I have to for that Lego set.
