Six-year-old asks for advance on his pocket money, this is dad’s response

This six-year-old got a surprising response after trying his luck cajoling some extra cash out of his dad for a new toy.

His dad clearly has a good sense of humour and took the time to write up a letter from ‘DAD Savings and Loan’ which ceremoniously rejected the little boy’s request.

In the letter it states the six-year-old has “insufficient funds and a history of not doing his chores”.

Sounds dodgy to us.

Although Mr Dad decided to reject his son’s request for funds, he did offer some hope to the young fella.

The child has the option to “refute the decision” by contacting his mother, apparently her powers of persuasion could be the clincher for a more liberal response.

Sounds like this dad is simply passing the request onto a higher power.

Clever guy!

The full letter reads:

Dear,

We regret to inform you at this time that we are unable to provide a loan in the amount requested of .00.

After reviewing your account, we have found you have insufficient funds and a history of not doing your chores.

Furthermore, over ,00 has been spent on discretionary entertainment expenses since Christmas. This is an unsustainable amount of expenditure and we cannot further compound the problem by financially assisting with occurring further debt at this point.

If you would like to refute this decision, you can contact our complaint department at ‘moms number’. Our dispute manager at this number may be able to persuade us to reverse our decision.

Thank you for choosing DAD Savings and Loan, we appreciate the chance to serve your financial needs.

Sincerely,
