[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [/quote] Does your childhood experience help you with respect to your current situation in that you know you can survive no matter what? Or does it cause more anxiety than others who are going through the same thing because you know what it is like to really not have enough money?[/quote] I'm the farm poor poster--I am confident that I am better off than most, as in a worst case scenario I'm pretty good at growing my own food and cooking squirrels. But even though I am quite well off now, I am extremely neurotic about money. I still carry my "the banks might fail" mentality -- and don't even get me started about the stock market. My 401(k) is invested in a stable value fund which I know is crazy but inflation is all the risk my nerves can tolerate.[/quote]
