      I bet it’s for their bank. At least in Europe, many banks charge for your account if your income is below a threshold. My partner can’t work full time so I send them like 50€ per month so that they don’t have to pay bank fees. Which is ridiculous, as we have our 3 accounts all at the same bank.

        Nah, he was too young and student too, so not bank income tax yet.

        He just wanted to feel better than those “bottom class losers”. And I do not joke. He study economics.
