Here's a story:
There is a shopkeeper up the road who hired me as a part-time worker, as he seemed to think I was 13.
The man was new to the country and had no idea about the laws of part-time working, and neither did I, except the age. He payed me £2 an hour and I worked 5 hours a day -> £10 a day.
I also worked 7 days a week for those 5 hours, so thats £70. I was allowed to get away with past 8 PM due to the not knowing anything about that laws and crap. So then, a weeks pay * 4 = £280 a month. I was working for 10 months and didn't spend a penny so that's £2800. Then my grandad died and in his will, he left me with £1000 so I had £3800. I then bought myself a PC at £600 and a TV + channels, and the family a PS3(But only me and my dad played it). I then bought a 3DS - which is absolute crap btw. I was left with roughly £2600-£2800, then bought a girl some expensive make-up for her birthday which took 50 away. I still have the rest of the money. Then, my mum bought herself a laptop.
Now, onto the stress:
Last week, considering I bought myself a PC and mum got a laptop, my sister was allowed the ex-family PC for herself.
Now, she has discovered Roblox and doesn't stop bugging me about it. It get's rather annoying having an 8 year old in your face all the time about a very crappy game full of the immaturest people of the internet.
I feel happy I have released this now.
