[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I identify with you, OP. I was spoiled, even though my parents were not "rich." We did budget, we didn't always keep up with the Joneses, I grew up in a modest cape rather than a McMansion, but I was spoiled in that I never knew hardship growing up or even the need to hustle. Everything was easy and predictable. I thought life was just that - go to school, get good grades, go to college, get a job, and voila - middle class American lifestyle, home, family, two cars, white picket fence, yada yada. BOY did reality smack me in the face. Financial crisis 2008, financial crisis 2020, student loan debt, stagnant salaries, ballooning health care costs. I just never grasped that I could be poor and financially struggling when I didn't do anything "wrong." [/quote] 💯. [/quote]
