I have been gaming since I was a kid, and obviously, my parents funds for my IT needs. Since then, I finance all my IT needs myself using my hard-earned money. What about you guys?

From 2003 to 2011, my parents, totally.
From 2011 to now, I, partially, other part is still backed up by parents.

I earn pretty much good amount of money, but still when I see that the budget is somewhat high, I ask my parents, they obviously don't agree to pay at first and try to refrain me from 'wasting' money behind 'nonsense' (according to them), but if I wanna convince someone, whoever he / she is, will be convinced :|

I bought my first phone myself. Apart from my first PC, I have always bought everything else on my own.

All My laptops and smartphones were purchased with my own savings. Maybe its because I'm getting older ;) but now I feel reluctant burning money on new gadgets. Spending money on gadgets with deteriorating value the second you pay for it seems kinda stupid.

Partially funded by me... I do small tasks to earn money, not straight away pocket money

Saving up is the best way to be more independent. I am certain that we can control our wants to budget our needs.
