[quote=Anonymous]My husband was a child war refugee, and suffered from hunger and extreme deprivation when he was young. Growing up in the refuge country, his parents were forced to be quite frugal until they became lower middle class when he was a teen. Money was always a concern. He clawed his way up to wealth, but cannot spend it unless it's on his children's education. He pays for private university, but patches his jeans, saves ketchup packets, drives a 20 year old car and grumbles when I buy clothes (on Poshmark, mind you). It's not rational. But it's understandable. And I'd rather he behave that way than be profligate. We live a happy, quirky life together. [/quote]
