When you become old and grey like me, you tend to pay for everything.....the house/car bills being the most

I am going to stick up for the kids on this one. There is nothing wrong with parents supporting a good positive hobby.

obviously the question is directed at children. There are not too many jobs out there for anyone under the age of 16.

I am 25 and pay for it all. Who else would?

It would be interesting to me to see the ages of the guys that posted in here. I'll even go first, I'm 39.
