[quote=Anonymous]My grandfather was in a poor orphan in a third world country that was enslaved. Two of my uncles died in childhood because of lack of money and the fact that my grandfather was incarcerated for many years because of his political activism. Dad was solidly middle class. We are upper middle class in DCUM land. We would be affluent in any other part of US. The way out of poverty was education. My granddad studied on his own (yes, under a streetlamp because home did not have electricity), and educated his sons and daughters. Our parents saved money and made education a priority. Today, we make education a priority too. Secrets of rich people is that they invest in the future of their kids and grandkids by educating them. They save money by not spending on immediate short term gratification and invest money on long term skills and investments that will bring greater returns. [/quote]
