Anyone know the current tooth fairy rates? What's standard? I have heard of people giving their kids $20 a tooth! what the hell!?
I think I got a lousy buck when I was little.

Usually $5, but gotta plan ahead because we rarely have any cash around. I wish my kid took Venmo.
Max I got as a kid was $2 and that's when I had to have a couple pulled.

Apparently the tooth fairy payouts map pretty well with the SnP 500

Man, my kid's getting ripped off. He gets a buck for one tooth. I think we gave a little extra for the first.
My boys are 14 & 12. They got 5 for the first, and +/- $2 after that, depending on what we were able to scrounge up. Does the tooth fairy nowadays offer payment in Bitcoin?
$5 was pretty standard for us. It led to several instances of running to the store to get some cash after the kid went to sleep.
Who is giving kids $20 a damn tooth!?
We went and got some gold Susan B. Anthony $1 coins. So he was able to collect them. We gave them to him the each year for the 2 years and then $5 a tooth plus the coin. He is 11 and just lost his last baby tooth a few weeks ago and we ran out of the coins. He still asked for one.

I wonder if this is why so many crack / meth heads are missing teeth?
It doesn't make much difference how much they get anyway. One of two things happens with any cash the boys get. One, their mom takes it when she needs cash, but I am not home for her to raid my wallet; or, they buy an Xbox game that costs 29.99, charged to my credit card. Then they give me "their" cash, which *was* my cash before the frigging tooth fairy converted it into "their" cash.
So, some confusion about the definition of "their" and "was"? It sounds like "their" mom is the winner.
