[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What saves our friendships is that we still live in our starter home and drive our beater cars. We don't worry about retirement or college tuition or anything like that, and it came up this year because our oldest is going to an expensive college. It may have been the first time our friends realized we could afford that sort of thing. I do think that if we moved to a fancy house and drove fancy cars, our friends would need a period of adjustment! [/quote] Yes, this is us too. I’m sure it’s just my bias because I grew up very middle class but I don’t think I would fit in in a rich neighborhood. And I’m Not sure I want my kids growing up surrounded by that. So we save a ton, spend on travel and other things we value. Friends would have no idea how much we have, which is fine with me. I don’t try to act like we are struggling but the house cars etc are not luxurious, but still good quality. This is what has worked for us. [/quote]
