Default 12

I got my first summer job when I was 12 making a whopping $1.25 per hour. A neighbor had a 14' Glastron with a 40 HP Johnson motor for sale for $750. My dad said he'd help me buy it if I saved half the amount. Working 40+ hours per week, we purchased the boat near the end of the summer. I was lucky, my dad gave me a lot of responsibility, so long as I didn't abuse it.
