I grew up with basic income. In high school my parents gave me $25 a week. If I wanted a new bicycle or expensive sneakers I had to work. At the time $25 covered going to the movies on a Friday or $7 grand stand seats at Fenway.
Maybe we should look at how teenagers manage allowances.
- rtkwe 10y agoI don't think that's a good test case because allowances don't have to go to things like basic necessities so leisure and nonessentials get all the money and there are a lot of constraints on what a teenager can do. They're bound to their home and have limited free time to do other things.
