[quote=Anonymous]When I went to college (early 2000s) my Dad used this formula: $1.75 per day for the quarter = the amount of "pocket cash" he gave me. This rationale was that's about the cost of a candy bar and a coke. You don't need anything else because you've got a meal plan and a dorm. I thought it was a little lean but I had no right to my Dads money. In the end I did just fine. In fact, because I didn't have extra cash I think it kept me out of trouble because I wasn't going out drinking and partying. I stuck close to the dorm and did homework. I finished my first year with a 4.0 GPA in an Electrical Engineering program and later on got a 50% student assistance position at the school. At that point I started to have a little extra cash. You are coddling your kid. Stop it.[/quote]
