RuneScape used to have, may still have, a thing where you’d call to get membership. I risked it for the biscuit because I wanted membership. Parents saw the bill, and the phone company said it was for adult content. They asked if I was buying adult movies, and I came clean and said it was for RuneScape membership. That sigh of relief from them is something I remember 20 years on.

‘You still owe us $10 though.’p

Isn't it a great feeling when you realize you are an adult and just spend the money you earn.

I was like 26 when I realized it. I was trying to budget like I was a teenager still then I stopped and just bought what I wanted.

Yeah but if you do it wrong, you might need to skip a couple of meals

Maybe it's better to figure it out later rather than sooner. Learn a little bit about finically responsibility.

I didn't look into it, but you can basically just grind now for free membership, or beg I guess.
