My first 2 paychecks from my callcenter job went to buying a whole new bedroom set. At the age of 22 I finally got to upgrade from a twin bed to a queen !! Felt so good to buy that all on my own.The only words you said that I understood were "His", "Phone" and "Ya'll". The other 2 paragraphs worth was about as intelligible as a drunken Teletubby barkin' come on's at a Hooter's waitress.

Hmm.. I probably spent it on the newest Oingo Boingo album, or Tears for Fears.
I started working when I was 14, in 1986.Age and wisdom don't necessarily go together. Some people just become stupid with more authority.

My first paycheck was spent on a necklace. I'd seen it the day before I got a call about an interview; went to the interview the next day and got a call saying I was hired that night. I bought it as soon as my pay was in my account.Michael: Maybe you'll be inspired by the boat party tonight and start a career as a pirate.
Tobias: I haven't packed for that.

errrr my first paycheque was for $5.55 (the hourly minimum wage in Ontario when I started working at age 14... I think that was... 1989?). My mom gave me a $5 and had the damn thing framed. She *still* owes me the 55¢
And yeah, I had to start buying my own clothes, shoes and school supplies when I was 15 and could work LEGALLY.GK/Kara/Jester fangirl.

Mmmm...my first "real" paychecque would have been from mowing the lawn at the local church all summer in 1997. I got paid a lump sum at the end of the summer, and I spent it all going through the Sears catalogue.
CD player-$190, crapped out by the time I started college. Still haven't replaced it.
Calgary Flames jersey-$65, and I still have it--it's the home jersey, and it was the first year that they changed the design from the old red, white, and yellow from the Lanny McDonald days. Used it as a practice jersey for my hockey "career", although I don't wear it much anymore. (I prefer to wear my red one.)I pray for the strength to change what I can, the inability to change what I can't, and the incapacity to tell the difference -Calvin, Calvin & Hobbes
