Teaching Money Matters

Yes-Yes is really excited. He has saved up quite a bit of money and really wants to go spend it, like right now. One thing I hated to hear when I was a kid was "save your money" because as a kid you're like, "for what?!". LOL The worst is that he's into Nerf guns and Wii accessories at the moment. I really can't stand the Nerf thing. It's all just useless plastic to me and a total waste of money. The video game stuff I can understand more since I like the games too. The only thing is all of a sudden he says he wants to buy an XBox. *sigh* Like we need another console. I'm really trying to get him to save up more to get a laptop so that we don't have to fight over computers. I think that's money better spent since he can use it for school too. It won't be long before he has to use one more than he does right now...and I won't have to fork out for it either. LOL
