[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People who don't have money tend to live frugally and look down on those who spend money frivolously (or what would be frivolous to them). It's a class difference. [/quote] My parents are rich and frugal. They also look down on those who spend money differently. Definitely not a class thing. I think it's an insecurity thing - they are descendants of farmers and bankers in the Midwest. You can imagine the intergenerational trauma from the depression - stock market crash and dust bowl. They survived and remained wealthy, perhaps frugality is how.[/quote]
