Father takes $9,000 of his 19-year-old daughter's money over 4 years, infuriates his GF: 'I did not do it out of greed'

Teaching your kids how to manage their money can be tricky, especially when they're in their teenage years. They get that first job and suddenly want to spend all their money on clothes, food, gas for their car, and going out with their friends. 

Of course, out in the real world, you can't just spend all your cash on clothes and food and expect to be successful. You've got to do the boring things too, like saving money, investing that cash in a 401k that you won't see until you're in your 50s, and stashing away some coins for a rainy day. Although these aren't the most fun ways to spend your money, it's important to learn this early on so that you don't get stuck in credit card debt or have other bad spending habits as you grow older. It seems like this dad is trying his best to teach his daughter about money, and he even has a lovely plan for her future. But for some reason, his GF is infuriated over the whole situation, and it's making some commenters raise their eyebrows.
