  nowadays youngsters have very poor planning over their money.
  
  seems like they are always looking forward to pay day to get more funds.
  
  agree?

  A completely skewed view.

  Youngsters is a very very general term. Not ALL youngsters plan poorly.
  
  I am what you consider a youngster as well. Yes, I do look forward to payday, but that's because I have to make ends meet, even with proper planning. I don't get this bonus called 'allowance' mind you.
  
  I agree, and do not agree.
  
  For those with poor planning, they might not know how to plan, or might not know the proper way to. I'm sure with a little guidance and help. They'd prolly could plan better.

  Depends. But getiing them to earn their own keep in the society is like "child labour".

  I sort of agree with that, but somebody has to do it, sadly.
  
  I get crap pay, but I guess the exposure and experience I'm gaining is, to me, priceless.

  hmm, you are right, youngsters is a very very general term.
  
  and i agree not all youngsters plan poorly but i just find majority do plan poorly.
  
  i agree all of us look forward to payday. maybe i'll elaborate with an example. most of my friends, perhaps 1 week before payday, are reluctant to go out because of lack of funds. after payday, you see them going out most of the time.
  
  fyi i'm not taking any allowance, instead i'm giving.

  ofcourse some are good and some are bad....sometimes things tend to change and well things become topsy turvy....like you already save enough to buy something then when you already buy something, your friend ask you to go out with them or your parents ask you to come along to JB or Batam...things like this happens
