[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Security and independence. My mom was SAH amd while my dad made plenty of money. He only gave her a set amount of cash in an envelope every month to spend on herself and us kids, so I constantly lived with her stress of not having enough. I decided young that I would never live that way. [/quote]
That’s horrifying, PP. Was he more generous as he aged, and did he leave you and your siblings money if he’s no longer around?

Like others have posted, money means security for me and helps me not worry about falling into the stressful life I had growing up. It means my kids have grown up without fear of poverty, and with that the freedom to explore the world a bit instead of just grinding and working from a young age. [/quote]

He’s gotten a little better with age but they still have the same system and my mom is still totally in the dark. He paid for all of our educations all the way up through law and medical school but never gave us any other financial gifts (though really, that one was huge and I thank him often).  My sister and I are both high earners now, neither of us would SAH. [/quote]
