Think quality. Buy one pair of jeans that are extra special to you and STOP. One good buy beats a whole bag of "sale items." When I was younger,. I lost a lot weight (60 pounds). I was so proud that I went on a three clothes buying binge. At your age, I think it is healthy slow down so that you have something to look forward to next year. BTW: studies suggest that you enjoy a purchase more if you window shop and kind of fall in love with an article of clothes before buying it. Go home from your shopping spots and think about the wonderful apparel article and return at least one more time before "pulling the trigger" on the buy. Buying less is not about saving money as much as learning to enjoy what you have. |

Where are you getting all this money when you are only 13 years old?
Have your parents open a savings account for you. They can set it up so that you need their permission to take money out. Put everything except a set amount in your savings and only spend what you keep. |

I know what you mean. The answer is leave your money at home! |

When you get some money ask your parents to put a small percentage of it in an account in witch you have no access to and maybe when hangin at the Coffee shop don't let your friends squeeze any money from you. In a couple of short months that money will add up fast. |

Try getting your parents involved. Get them to open up a bank account only they have access too. Ask them to put money in that account on a regular basis. If you have a debit card too, maybe ask them to hold onto it until the weekend or to keep it at home and not bring it out with you. |

maybe what you can do is get your mom or someone you trust to hold your money for you and you can only use it if positively need it but if that doesn't work then you can give it to someone and it is there choice to see if you really need it .Good luck =D! |

"Just Say No" to impulsive behavior issues like this one. I disagree with the folks who suggest you let others manage your money because you won't learn how to manage it. If you have other impulsive issues, you might want to spend some of that money on some therapy. Otherwise, look to the future and save for a car, for higher education, for travel, for your own home---there are a lot of "big-ticket" items coming up for you. If you want to learn how to invest and quite likely make your money grow, have one of your folks take you to a brokerage firm--we use Edward Jones. Although EJ is one of the more expensive firms, you're less likely to run into a financial advisor who will take advantage of your age, education, etc. We learned the hard way (almost 10K hard) that many discount brokers steer you towards buying items that have a big pay out for them. The very bottom line is you have to develop self-discipline, set goals, and learn how to mind that inner voice. Just by asking this question, you admit you have a problem and want to deal with it. You can do this!! |
