[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in a great neighborhood in close in pg county (house is a small 4 bedroom but I can afford the $1200/ mortgage). Have a solid job (fed). My kids are in good schools (daughter did private for elem and now both in public). One does travel soccer and plays piano. The other dances and plays saxaphone. Both are smart and healthy. I drive a used Mazda 5 which I love. We enjoy vacations and outings to cultural activities... I put $600/month into college savings.... I just wonder, how could I not feel rich?[/quote] Good for you, but lets be honest...If you can afford a $1200 a month mortgage, you aren't poor. I grew up poor in West Baltimore. My neighborhood was made famous by The Wire. I wore one pair of shoes all of high school. Meals were often just starches flavored with whatever cheap powdered soup mix or gravy was on sale that week. that is poor. You are middle class. Own it.[/quote]
