Did any of you have parents who were really controlling over

I didn't get any money when I was a kid, maybe the odd $20 when I was going out with my friends, my parents taught me to save when I got my first job at 15.

I'm 20 now and I'm all good, so nothing negative really.

Not even birthday checks from relatives and the like?

some people are born into very poor families. For my birthday, I'd say I usually would get in total from my family around a hundred dollars worth in gifts. And I was born into a middle class family.

My mom tried to do that when i was a kid, but it didn't work, when i was a teenager, my family used to take all of my savings and studentship money. We were middle class, my dad had a pretty good job, but 4 children+awful financial management comes looking for it's money.
My mother used to talk lots about getting rich and opening more small-business (in a dying field), while at the same time spending money on bullshit, i used to feel bad for my dad, he was actually trying to get economical stability but my mother kept dragging him down, she used to blame him for her financial mediocrity

What, like they'd out-right steal it from you, or put it into savings?

Wew lad.

My parents put my allowances and the like in a bank account on my name, plus money of their own to have more attractive conditions. When I became an adult they closed the account and took all the money.

My parents put all my earnings into repayment of the house mortgage.
Well I live in the house too and get fed for free so I suppose I can accept that

My parents would put a bit in a savings account and then when I was 18 I could have it

It was $2000

They never taught me a single thing about budgetting, planning for a career, finance, economics, etc.

They refused to disclose their incomes out of fear I'd tell other people, while they only earnt upper middle class and middle class wages.

They're both good goys who are retarded and did me a diservice, but things could have been worse.

They made me very frugal and resistant to spontaneous purchases. I was one of the few people that actually had liquidity during college because of money I had saved up from starting work at 16 years old.

My parents bouvhre everything I wanted except for video games. I would love to save and count my money , I remember when I had $200 I lives saving hording money, bought I never new what to do with it.

My dad told me he would invest in the stock market, o piggybacked his trades in the 90s when I was 10, basically have him all nmy 200-350 from allowance. He bought rambus, Seagate, 3do (shitty old Vidya company). All three companies eventually turned to shot (he sold rambus at some point) went from almost 2 million to only owning the house again practically. But recovered.
He basically gave me my 350 back even though it became worthless.
