Steven Weiss, a father of two boys, is celebrating a major #ParentingWin on Facebook. His kids shared how they allocate their allowance every week with Humans of New York, and people everywhere are beyond impressed.
“Every week I get one dollar for allowance. Then I get to choose the section where I put my dollar. There are four sections: spend, save, donate, and invest. If I put a dollar in the ‘invest section,’ my parents give me two extra pennies at the end of every month. I’ve only used my ‘spend section’ twice! I have way over $10 in my ‘invest section.’ I used to have more but I took some money out and put it in my ‘donate section.’ We used to it to buy food for people who don’t have much money in their ‘spend section.’”
The Facebook post has been shared over 95,000 times and has over 808,000 likes.
After the Facebook post went viral, Steven made another comment that made parents gush with love– he gave a shoutout to the wifey.
