Very good point. I remember being so excited when I got my first job at 16 and opened a bank account because I could finally purchase things online without having to do something like buy a prepaid debit card, which always had an overhead fee.

Even after that, I was always frugal and never wanted to spend something like $15 a month for a server for my friends. Now, as an adult software developer, I wouldn't think twice about the fun to dollar ratio of paying for a Minecraft server to connect with some old friends.
