Eh, money doesn't buy happiness. I know it's trite, but there will ALWAYS be someone out there with a bigger house, more money, and more stuff than you. I don't care how rich you get, there's always someone richer. Might as well not waste time being jealous of what you don't have and start focusing on making your life great (through appreciation, hard work, whatever it takes to make you happy!).

Signed,

Someone from a working-class family who feels very grateful for her little house, reasonably nice job, good health, and awesome family.

no, but I'd rather be rich and unhappy than poor and unhappy.

We bought ours in our mid-thirties, without family money. It needed work, so we got it cheap. We also had a good down-payment ready from having made a huge profit on the house we sold.

The people I know who live in an awesome G'Town house got it from their parents who retired somewhere warm.
