That is absurd - sm

My girls got their start working at Target at age 16 at about 9 per hour, going up to 11 by the time they graduate college and get their real jobs. That has been plenty of money for their needs. I had one daughter who saved up $11,000 dollars from age 16 to 20 when she transferred from the community college to the University. Not everyone needs to make 15 an hour.
