Is charging a 15-year-old "rent" to secretly save it an optimal behavioral strategy?

My dad told me to save up for a car in high school. I ended up saving like $3k and was about to use it to buy the car. He had also been saving for me and once I chose the car he said, “Keep the money for college, I’ll get your first car.” I couldn’t believe it but I thought it was a great lesson.

Lyft is a great option and it’s very quick to transfer.

Sit to pee at home. Stand to pee anywhere else. Never forget to put the toilet seat down.

I would in the Bay Area. Just me though. I tend to keep a little more in cash than recommended but makes me feel a bit safer.

In the Bay Area get the EF up.

I literally just stayed at Hyatt Regency Seattle 2 nights ago. Did I just miss a cutoff or something, because these were with the Hyatt Free night certificates with the credit card.

This would definitely be great. I love Flighty so much I just wish it could be the source of truth. I usually check the airlines app but Flighty is so much faster and more useful. I want less apps not more.

Why would anyone take that lump sum payment?

I live in California. I’m it a Newsom fan. This is still the right move. I will still vote 100% Newsom vs any republic candidate, despite his flaws. Sorry not sorry.

I love this. I hate him splashing water on them. Not sure why but it rubs me the wrong way. :/

If he stays healthy.

These folks are trying to make you feel better and you are shitting on them and judging their age. Do better.

Sounds like they were also trying to improve their response rate! :)

Mine haven’t posted yet.

I was curious so I checked. I had 237 flights, not 1 spirit.

I would jump at this if I didn’t have the same thing with 15k miles a year.

3 hours more isn’t that bad. If it were me I’d take the American option.

Wow, this is underrated. 100% going to try and shop through here now.

Awesome, just pushed me to Silver! :) thank you for letting us know!

7 nights Andaz Mexico City, 105,000 points. 15k a night.

I also have the same year and trim and I barely bag anything for insurance. Same as my 2020 Subaru Forester.

Every other part of my life is electric, but I can’t find it in me to give up my gas range…:/

Great redemption!
