[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The difference between being rich and being poor is having choices.

Can you CHOOSE to forgo income to stay home with your kids?

Can you CHOOSE to move to a lower COL area if you get tired of DC?

Can you CHOOSE to retire before you drop dead?

Can you CHOOSE to pay for some/all of you child's college expenses?

Can you CHOOSE to live in a home in a safe neighborhood?

Now, none of those choices may make you feel rich, but believe me, just having the ability to make those choices means you're better off than most of the people I grew up with in my middle class midwestern town.[/quote]

+1.  Many of the PPs are so delusional and entitled it is truly disturbing.  Combined with the fact they're probably "liberals" and I'm really starting to see why Trump won.  My HHI is $360K.  I'm rich.  I feel rich.  My life is great.  I *chose* to live in Rockville instead of DC where I work so my house didn't cost $1+ million but SO WHAT?  Still rich.  Life's great. [/quote]
