How much was your first paycheck?

My first paycheck was when I was 10 years old which was almost 40 years ago. And it was for $25 to help my grandpa. I can not thank him enough for teaching me responsibility as a kid.
I've been tipped by my grandparents for doing somethings for them when I was a kid. I never considered it as payment but them appreciating me for being a good kid.
 
My inaugural paycheck amounted to $500. Though it may not have been a fortune, it marked the beginning of my financial independence journey. That modest sum symbolized my initial steps into the workforce, igniting a sense of pride and responsibility. Over time, its value transcended mere dollars, representing the rewards of hard work and the start of countless opportunities ahead.

You hardly see anyone who starts off making millions of dollars immediately on their first job. It begins with the baby steps in how much you earn until it gets boosted.
