Parents flip out and beat their son at a gaming café for spending $45,000 of real cash in a video game [VIDEO]
Parents flip out on son for spending $45K in a video game
Children today simply don’t understand the value of the dollar the way that generations before them did. As a result, today’s young people don’t appreciate what hard work for a dollar actually is. That said, children are more brazen about wasting their money on whims. Not only do children waste money on needless products, but they also waste them virtually, in their video games. This young man has broken that record, as he spent $45,000 while gaming. His parents came to find him and took care of him while he was still playing.
Especially in today’s economy, $45,000 is hard to come by. The average family, not even counting individuals, barely have $4,500 in the bank, let alone $45,000. Given the cost of living and other expenses, most people don’t have the chance to make that much money. Even those who do have that kind of money treat $45,000 as an emergency fund. However, this child treated $45,000 like it was disposable income. As a result, his parents came into the gaming café and gave him a lesson about how life works.
While a parent’s love for a child supersedes all, a child wasting $45,000 real dollars in a video game will push that limit. For one family, this actually happened, and the parents did the only thing they could. Their son was at a gaming café, playing one of the games. Apparently, the kid’s parents’ banking info was connected to the game. While playing, the kid spent $45,000 of actual money in the game. Clearly, the parents were alerted. As a result, they went down to where their child was playing and disciplined right there on the spot in front of everyone.
