[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a sophomore who was an athlete who had never had a HS or summer job, just some babysitting/gift type money when they left for college. They are at a state flagship in a city. We gave $200/month for "fun money" in the debit account where we don't see the charges. Plus my kid has a credit card that I pay. It is hard to parse out because everything - prescriptions, books, toiletries, fast food, amazon orders, gas, ubers, activities, etc - is on that card, but it averaged about $1000 a month freshman year. Kid is expected to pay for more on their own this year after having a summer job, but still gets $100 "fun money". We are paying Greek dues and essentials mentioned above, still roughly $1000 a month. [/quote] Amazon, gas, food, activities - what else is there under “fun money?”[/quote]
