I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

MCC membership.

The current waiting time is about 20 years, and will probably get longer in the future, but in that 20 odd years your son will be eligible for Grand Final tickets.

So possibly in time to see St. Kilda's next flag

We plan on buying wine now that will be aged perfectly once he turns 21.

You're toying around with the kid getting into sailing and you're contemplating a bottle of wine?

gently caress that, talk to a distiller and buy a barrel of whisky that goes into aging this year, then bottle it when the brat turns 21.

I'm gonna buy my kid a bottle of grain alcohol and split it with him when he turns 15 until we both black out, just like my daddy and his daddy and his daddy.

Given that we apparently can’t keep a planet habitable when it starts out that way, I struggle to believe that mars will ever be a better place to live

Surprised nobody has mentioned opening a Roth IRA for your child. My parents did that for me and turned it over to me when I turned 21. I'm not certain it's entirely legal for you to contribute on your child's behalf so I won't get into that.

Wait, so you parents can't open up an investment/savings thing for their kid and then contribute to it?
Guess thats why all these millenials are broke AF. They "ain't started working till there twelve or thirteen 'cause there lazy"!!

Isn't there anything that I can set up for my child financially to help them out when they turn a certain age?

Not an expert, but my understanding is you can't contribute more to an IRA than your income for the year, with a cap of $6k. So since a kid has no income, you can't contribute to one for them.

At this point, getting your kid a bunch of toilet paper and MREs might be more prudent, though.

Yeah, MREs make decent rear end-wiping material after you finish eating the toilet paper.

There’s no waiting list for Masters tickets. They do a lottery drawing every year that is open to the public.
