A comment on Ask HN: Do you pay your children for good grades?.
Which, in retrospect wasn’t much per hour, but was a sufficient motivator to do well in the classes I didn’t care for.
When my grades started to matter for university admissions, they doubled the rate per A in grade 10 and tripled it in grades 11 and 12.
They made me save half and allowed me to spend half, which was a good lesson as it helped me pay cover a few unexpected expenses during undergrad.
