LOL I ws a big city boy, off base at Ft Monmouth NJ. WE had a garden that sis and I helped in just cause we ate too and I mowed the lawn. Dad never paied me because I used his mower to make money mowing lawns. Dad always said it was rent. When I was 14 a guy gave me an old mower that he had been told the engine was shot on. Took it home did what dad had taught me, cleaned and gapped the points. It fired right up. Saterday morning I mowed our lawn with MY mower, walked in the house and told dad he owed me 3 bucks for mowing the yard. He started going on about how I was going to have to pay rent to use his mower....told him I didn't use your mower, I used mine. He said Bull!!! Got up and walked out in the back and there sat my mower. He set the throttle and jerked the rope and it fired right up. He took his wallet out and paid me and never said a word. He then helped me figure what it was going to cost to maintain that mower. I sold that mower to and old guy down the street a few days later and never charged dad for mowing again. But I learned a great deal from that, both on the cost of operating equipment and parenting.
