I disagree. We definitely needed more than that when our kids were that age.

Edit: My daughter is 9. She made Company this year. It’s $1500 just for the dance classes. Doesn’t include outfits/shoes. Dance recital tickets that are $35 each. $125/month ain’t cutting it :laugh:



1000% agree with this one.

all that is a luxury. not even close to any type of necessity.

Technically it’s not. Yet the kids who do get those opportunities tend to do better in life. So though it’s not necessary, for our household, it’s essential.

A lot of these groupies don't seem to value the difference between comfort and luxury. Most ballers, whether it's the NFL or NBA, are not stars. I notice most of these tiktoks are about fringe NBA guys, or NFL players who weren't stars. Guys who get one nice contract and then start collecting a few small deals until they fizzle out. just glancing at this guy's contracts he may have made 10mil total after taxes, agents, etc. That's a lot of money but it's not luxury money. It's not "live in LA, travel overseas multiple times a year, buy multiple cars" rich. It's comfort money. The type of money you use to move down south, buy land, get a nice house, and enjoy life. Yea you can travel but not to some crazy level. Yea you can buy cars but not yearly.

It's basically the life of a successful guy who owns a construction/roofing/etc business down south. You got a nice house, you're making money, etc. Your wife can stop at Gucci but she's gonna be at Nordstroms or Macys more often. You have an actual budget. You know who is fine with that life? Your high school sweetheart, or a local chick (with a career) who you met, etc. You know who will want more? The chick you met in Vegas, or the chick from the club you met in whatever city you play for. Those chicks do NOT want comfort, they want luxury.
Well Said!
