Yes if you dont teach them the value of money, of course they will misuse it
My dad only gave me money for going out and clothes, using money on video games always was absolutely prohibited.
I grew up to be a piratefag even if I don't lack money. I love you dad.
My brother (29yo now) taught me that I (19yo now) should NEVER spend money on singleplayer games, microtransactions or shit games. The exception is indie games such as Postal 2 or games that I really like and want to support the dev (i.e. Organ Trail, stuff like that) or timeless classics (i.e. tomb raider, valve games, ace combat etc).
He also taught me that corpos are not my friends.
Thank you, brother.
>The exception is indie games such as Postal 2 or games that I really like and want to support the dev
Your brother is fucking retarded. It is not your job to support anyone out of the goodness of your heart you fucking retard
>being this mad at this time
Dude, take something or your heart might explode.
Btw that wasn't what I meant. With "Support for the dev", I meant "I like the game, keep it up", not something like "I paid, now I own you".
That's the investors job.
My dad said he would give me money or buy me the stuff I wanted if I tried hard at school and got good grades. Naturally I decided that it wasn't worth the effort and that mentality has stuck with me to this day.
there is much more to parenting than just showering them with gifts. but what would you know about that? don't be so mad that your parents failed you 😉
This is a teachable moment you sperg. If you never give your children room to be retarded you'll never have the chance to correct their stupidity. Its a good thing parent didnt give him access to more than $50.
>multiple small discord payments
This little shit is buying Nitro for e-girls. Better have a word with him before he becomes a full-on simp pigging out for underage girls.
Most zoomers do not actually live in their bodies. They live in the internet. Compare the number of hours playing outside or playing sports in their lifetimes to the amount of time on the internet, and I guarantee you that for 95+ percent of zoomers, time on the internet will be greater.
The kid doesn't want to spend money on himself because he doesn't care about anything in the real world. He would rather spend money on what he cares about: his favorite youtubers.
I'm not talking about Ganker users, I'm talking about the whole zoomer generation, whereas previous generations would have spent more time outside than online. Learn to read.
My parents would be happy if I decided to give my money as a kid to charity or those less fortunate than me. They'd beat my ass though if I went up to the richest neighborhood in town and started handing out that same money though. I'm not saying the father should go full whipageddon on that kid with his belt, but importing that those streamers and youtubers are more successful alongside richer than they'll ever be with no need for donations from your average joe is a vital learning experience from this.
He should probably sit his kid down and have a talk about social parasitism and parasocial relationships. Chances are the kid gets his sense of self worth from a streamer saying thanks.
But that alone isn't gonna be enough to fix the problem, it's just gonna make the kid aware that there is a problem, which is its own problem.
>My brother (29yo now) taught me that I (19yo now) should NEVER spend money on singleplayer games
Where would stuff like Dark Souls fall on that? It's a singleplayer game, kinda, but it's also multiplayer.
Depends.
Do you have a house? Do you pay for that house, or is the mortgage already paid in full, or are you living with your parents?
Are your parents old enough to die soon so you can take their house?
Do you have a car? Can you pay taxes and such for it?
Are you saving up some Little money in case of emergencies?
Also a zoomer, I spend all money on bills, food, random anime/manga/videogame/vtuber shit I want, gun stuff and a lot of fucking pot.

I'm glad I'm an only child and didn't have to learn things from retarded siblings like "support the devs"

Look at all those paid reddit awards he got from his fellow stepdads
Reddit is ending their points shop so people have been generous with awards in the last few months with their remaining balance.

...What does that have to do with the subject of this thread?
My first post literally answered OP's question. Learn to read.
No it didn't. Most Video Games require an Internet connection so your comparison makes no sense

>post shows how retarded zoomers waste their money
>retarded millenials then waste their money by giving shitty reddit awards
Lol
I hate shittenials so goddamn much. I want to genocide them. Every single one of them.
I forgot those cost money. Fucking hell.
like father like step son
Those cost money? Lmao r.dditors are subhuman
They indeed are
Wow, you can accurately use this scale to judge the mental illness of any given redditor

It's fun, though.

Holy dysgenics!
Zoomer here, i spend all my money on manga, vidya and food. Am i wasting my money?
Depends.
Do you have a house? Do you pay for that house, or is the mortgage already paid in full, or are you living with your parents?
Are your parents old enough to die soon so you can take their house?
Do you have a car? Can you pay taxes and such for it?
Are you saving up some Little money in case of emergencies?
20-24s who own a house is the lowest it has ever been in history. Even the trust fund kiddos are getting fucked.
Also a zoomer, I spend all money on bills, food, random anime/manga/videogame/vtuber shit I want, gun stuff and a lot of fucking pot.
Checked and no.
who fucking cares?
