Tired of your child spending his cash allowance on drug money? Kim Kardashian has the fiscal solution: get your little ones hooked on plastic.

Kim has teamed up with Mastercard to launch a new prepaid card for kids as young as thirteen, marketing the product as a better way to track your childrens spending. This is good news, because by the time these kids have learned that credit credits are not real money and can sustain a lifestyle they cannot afford, the economy will have stabilized enough that we can once again watch the fiery explosion that will be the impending credit meltdown. Seriously, when I have kids, they are going to learn the value of the dollar the hard way: Im cutting them off at age 18 months. What? You think money just grows on trees?

But really, you cant help but wonder Is the alignment of cards launch date with the opening of the new Dash Soho location really just a coincidence? Kim's no dummy.
