I have had a nintendo account for awhile now. Everything in my name (username,eshop credit card info,ext....)

Just got my two kids ages 12 and 10 a switch for Christmas. I have made both of them accounts on the console that they can use.

Now my question is if i sign into the EShop with my information and purchase DLC ext... will my kids be able to use that stuff on their profiles or do they each need to have access to the Eshop on their accounts?

Same question for online play like mario kart 8. Do i need to do anything special so either can play online?

I'm thinking it won't be necessary to purchase again. It will be tied to your main account in case you delete your game data, but anyone on the same device should be able to access the game and dlc content.

They have always used my account to play games before on Wii U and wii but now they are getting older and want their own accounts.
Just want to make sure i got everything setup right to avoid any confusion.

    When I owned my pizza place many years ago, we didn't have a cash register at all, every employee was given a "bank" of small bills at start of shift. Then everyone pocketed the money and made change, and I'd cash everyone out at end of shift. One time we had a gunman come in to rob me and wanted to know where's the cash register. I told him we don't take cash, only credit, and he left with nothing. Cops caught him even.

    I don't really like having it all in the bank because you never know when systems go down or information gets stolen

    My wifeys aunt gave her some gold coins in her will when she passed last year, and the tax man was gonna tax her a gift tax on it, but our accountant said if she sells the gold and put that money into a 5 year CD, it will be untaxable. So she did, and now IRS saying they want a income tax on the gold coin sale. Damn taxman always greedy.
