How to set up rescue e-mail? (after you registered)

Hey everyone I'd like to purchase things in App Store but I can't because I have to answer the security questions first. I haven't set up a rescue e-mail when I created my Apple ID. Soo my question is to How to set up a rescue e-mail address now?(probably in iTunes??)

I called Apple Support, but after 90 minutes on hold and 2 dropped calls... support told me the ONLY way you can get around this is to talk with them

so please ANSWER MY QUESTION and please HELP!

iPhone 5c, iOS 7.0.4

You won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions, if you don't have one then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset (these are user-to-user forums).

Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
