Clayton: Hockey starts next week, dad. Adam: How is that possible? Summer just ended. Clayton: I need new skates, a new helmet and a new stick. Adam: That sounds expensive. Maybe I can make you a stick. I'll need an old mop, some duct tape, a hacksaw and your old sticks blade... And some gum. Clayton: Great. I'll be the envy of the league. Adam: And you could earn some money after the game by mopping the rink.

To realize the value, he should earn money and pay for his own.

$300 a stick? You’ve gotta be kidding! I like Adam’s idea.

Um, you can get sticks for $20 each. A really good stick will run you $100-$150. While you CAN spend more, (my kids played until recently, and I still play), almost nobody does. As a parent, though, I am only too happy to pay for a good helmet. BTW, kids don’t have that many opportunities to earn that kind of money until they hit their teens. Not allowed to be paperboys anymore.

If he was on a Curling Team, he could make some money by sweeping the arena afterwards.

Kids can walk dogs. I paid a middle school kid to feed our cats while we were on vacation.
