analog999 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2006 My parents are filthy rich, but they just don't seem to put out like some other rich parents do for their MSH'ers. I thought you guys whose parents have lots of money and buy you everything might have some tips. I'd like to not have to be in the club that doesn't "bite the hand that feeds them," if you know what I mean.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdcopp 1 Report post Posted April 24, 2006 I'm thinking it's for gear. I don't know what it's like to come from a filthy rich family, but my parents always had enough extra to make sure they could do some for me every now and again. They always made me work for things though, and I'd advise you to take the route I did: barter your time and work for what you want them to buy you. I still do this from time to time as an adult with them, usually doing landscaping or property maintenance type stuff to earn some spare coin for leagues and such. It's amazing to parents when their kids asks "What can I do to earn X amount of money?" as opposed to "Will you buy me X?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
