Pocket money wasn't a thing in my family either. Nor were sweets and toys! It was special occasion only, and it taught me to eat all the candy, whenever it was there.
Also I would have liked to go to more basketball games with my dad.
My dad was fit most of his life, but by the time I was old enough to play, he didn't play any sport games with me. I don't remember ever going to any kind of sporting event with him.
