<p>My son is living off of his summer earnings. We pay for books and his cell phone. He goes to school in suburbia though so there isn’t much to spend money on even if he wanted to.</p>
<p>He has hardly spent anything so far. I think he has gone out for ice cream once. Most entertainment is provided for free by the university.</p>
<p>I know things would be different if he were living in a city.</p>
