[quote=Anonymous]When I was 22, my boyfriend taught me how to create a budget. No one had ever taught me how to do that before. When I asked my mom about it later in adulthood, she said that our budget was really stressful for her because there was never enough money for everything that we needed in a given month, and she was sad and embarrassed about that and didn't want to have to explain to me how poor we actually were. As an adult, I have a great budget that allows for a lot of flexibility where needed, and I have been proactively teaching my kids how to create a budget and work toward a financial goal. [/quote]
