Some things I'm happy to pay for

The world's most perfect teenager has complained that he can't earn his own money. I want him to concentrate on his school work first and foremost.

To get him a little extra motivated, we signed a contract with him last Christmas where we agreed that we would pay for good grades.

We pay him both for exams and his final grades for year 10. If it goes well, we will continue in both grades 11 and 12.

We pay as follows:

A summative with a grade of 8 gives $100

A summative with a grade of 7 gives $50

A summative with a grade of 6 gives $25

A final grade for year 10 with a grade of 7 gives $100

A final grade for year 10 with a grade of 6 gives $50

Any rating lower than these results in no payout.

Today I had to send $75 via the Venmo app. It was summative in Swedish which resulted in a 7th and a 6th.
