The "parents paying" thing is really funny.
The most frequent comment I get is "wow this must cost you a lot", or "how much do you pay for that". Like they cannot come up with it : "I pay N for one account, how much does he pay for five accounts". Then I usually tell them something like "65 euros is not so much when you have a job", and they just seem to not even have thought about that posibility.
Probably just kids.
