Pocket money is hardly an indicator of whether your parents are loaded or not.  Some kid gets more pocket money that you «- means absolutely nothing.  Even jobless people relying on the government will have enough money to pay an amount as small as a bit of pocket money.  Rather, it's a measure of how much your parents spoil you.

I know this exchange student back then from highschool, his parents send him the equivalent of $1000AUD every week.  He drives a BMW to school and buys himself a new pair of $200-$300 Nike shoes every 2 weeks.... that's what I call parents being loaded (supposedly, they own a casino in Hong Kong).  He gave me a Razer Diamondback mouse (which was $100+ back then) as thanks because I lent him some money one day he forgot to bring his own (wee used to play Warcraft3 at school, and my mouse was quite shitty).  I still use that mouse.

yammata684, your from Jacksonville? Are you referring to SC or FL? Because I am moving back home to Jax, FL this December. It'd be cool to meet an internet friend.

So what are you planning to do there?  Study?
Best of luck.
