We have a 15-year-old daughter, and she is a social media influencer. We've made her older siblings buy their own cars,

and they probably had $6 to $7,000 to buy a car when it was time.

But obviously her situation is going to be much different.

And we aren't necessarily in agreement as to my husband and I as to how much money we should

allow her to spend on her car.

What is she earning? This is crazy. It is crazy. Her manager says that in the next year,

she'll make $100,000. Currently, she has a fully funded Roth IRA.

She has 32,000 in the brokerage, and she's averaging about $8,000 to $10,000 a month right now.

Wow.

So what does she want to spend on a car?

To get what she wants, she'd want to spend around $50,000.

Wow. Okay, I can understand your conundrum. Is that, can I just ask, can I just ask, honestly, is that more

expensive than your car? Yes. Wow. This is something. Yeah. Okay. Oh, my gosh. This is juicy. This is a good call. And this is how I would feel as a mom. And I don't have a 15-year-old. Let me just say that. Neither do I. I have a 10-year-old. So I take this with a grain of salt. I always hate

giving parenting advice when there's, I agree. I won't even say this is advice. This is like

what just came up in me, Wendy, as a mom. We'll just be, we'll just be girlfriends just chatting.

I like that. What rose up in me is less about the dollar amounts and more about what I am.

What am I? What am I helping her as a mom see that is important in life.
