A UABKICl Lack of Funds Bothers Girl I get only $1 a week for an allowance and it does not go very far I buy my own cosmetics extra school supplies pleasure reading books and I have to pay out money for church and Sunday school every week Once or twice a week I buy part or all of my school lunches not allowed to baby sit When I had the opportunity Mom said How much allowance should a 14-year-old girl get? ELLEN Sorry I cannot give a pat answer to your question but I do not understand how you can stretch a dollar to pay for all the things you mentioned The size of a allowance must be dependent on the financial condition of the family If money is not a problem I would say an allowance of about $5 a week is about right Of course parents and teens should discuss the allowance and be sure both sides understand just wbat it is to be used for However if money is hard to come by naturally a allowance will of necessity be considerably less When teenagers have an opportunity to earn some extra money I believe they should be encouraged to do it providing the working conditions are suitable for the yaungsters and do not interfere with their school work "Grind" Wants School Friends I am 16 I have always made good grades in school but I like school and I really know why I get along with the teachers but I have many friends and know how to be something other than a What is the best way to make friends at school? JOHN School friendships are usually based on having mutual interests and experiences with others Try to be friendly and show a genuine interest in what others are doing Joining school clubs and participating in school activities brings yon in contact with other boys and girls Extra curricular activities are very important to round off your school years Try for a job on your school paper join the debating team or try out for a class play Develop the habit of asking questions of boys and girls about things you know interest them most and learn to be a good listener It is very desirable to be a good student but a good student without friends can be very lonely Try some of the things I have suggested and see if you a much happier boy Best wishes Reigns at Marymount Mary Sweat a senior

procedure A is another name for the securities salesman or saleswoman who puts the market machinery into operation when an investor buys or sells stocks bonds or shares in mutual funds Whatever called broker registered representative account executive the smart stockbroker who is a peopleliker can have a blue chip career in the money game -BROKERAGE BOOM Brokerage revenues (about 5 billion dollars this year) and profits are so healthy that the government wants to whack commissions on large orders and eliminate entirely the fixed minimum commission system Wall Street spokesman reply like it However the controversy turns out barring an unexpected economic slump the future looks bullish for bro- kers IT'S UPHILL AT FIRST You may need a little subsidy while becoming a broker because it takes awhile (say five years) to build a clientele The turnover tends to be high among beginners The brokerage firm provides a training salary and later a draw against future commissions but rarely over $500 a month and frequently less Because pleasant work and contacts are helpful this a magnet for the money fringe and sports figures Even after established the securities industry reacts to the national ups and downs JOBSCOPE A broker relays a buy or sell order to the order room or trading department in accordance with the wishes notifying the customer when the transaction is completed The broker also gives information regarding securities market conditions history and prospects of various corporations to customers To the neophyte the broker may explain the meaning of market terms and trading practices To the seasoned money game player he may offer suggestions about the purchase or sale of a particular stock OTHER DUTIES include furnishing customers with the latest quotations as well as information about the activities and financial positions of corporations The broker must spend considerable time doing research as well as climbing over paper mountains Although he is usually in the office during the stock market hours (10 a to 3:30 Eastern time) he may arrange his own working schedule EDUCATION Although some senior partners of major firms started as messenger boys sans schooling most men and women becoming securities brokers today are college graduates A degree in business economics or liberal arts (with business courses) is one preferred preparation a liberal arts education in undergraduate school topped with a degree in business or finance is ideal Almost all states require securities brokers to be licensed and most firms have on-the-job training programs of six months or longer Trainees must pass written exams and character investigations CAPITAL GAINS Earnings are mostly through commissions although some firms pay salaries and-or year-end bonuses In 1967 full time brokers generally earned between $8-17000 while crack salesmen earned $25000 and up Highly successful brokers command very large incomes DIVIDEND READING: Occupation Outlook Reprinting
