[quote=Anonymous]I spent the first 12 years of my life dirt poor in a third world country. Then my family immigrated here, spent the next 8 years being poor here (My parents' HHI was and still is around $30k a year). Now my partner and I make around $200k a year. I'm constantly amazed by how many life problems Ithat can be alleviated by just having money. Not having to constantly plan out which paycheck pays what bill or when which payment comes out. If I have a big surprised bill, I'm gonna be annoyed because I can't save as much as I want this month, not because I'm gonna need to ration food to get through the month. I must say though, having been poor for so long, I have extreme anxiety about losing it all some day. My friends and colleagues who grew up in UMC families in this area can't understand it at all and think I'm nuts lol[/quote]
