For a lot of people, prom is a big event for those who are close to graduating high school. The memories made on that night are supposed to be fond memories with friends that last a lifetime. However, this begs the question: Is it financially worth it? Today, Onyx talks about the significance of prom while also creating a metaphorical receipt of the costs.

Getting a car as a teenager is considered a rite of passage, although it’s not a full necessity. Even if it’s expensive, a lot of people are expected to own one to be able to travel anywhere. While Onyx doesn’t quite own one just yet, he talks about why cars are such a big requirement for a teenager's life and why it’s the biggest ticket to teenage freedom.

Sleep is seen as something really important for teens and young adults to establish in their lives, however, it seems to have taken a backseat in the vast majority. Almost every teenager has a different sleep schedule that never leaves them fully energized; this leads to many issues. In this episode, not only does Onyx show why some teens find it harder to get a good night's rest, but he also reveals how the expectations of the day can alter someone’s sleep patterns.
