For one thing, it helps you and them quickly see what they really value, which isn’t always everything they’ve been begging for. I’ve had this on my mind too and planning a post about my 21 year old son paying off his car loan of $10,000 in 6 months. It all started with earning an allowance!

I dislike allowance b/c I felt like they ended up with more money than they needed and i could not see the work they did in front of my face, even if they had done work. I like to pay them immediately right now b/c I do not have 1,000 tracking devices in place to keep track of who I owe when. I have a section of my home notebook that does list what kids I owe money to but I would forget to write small amounts. Therefore, for now, I pay immediately.
