[quote=Anonymous]So much better.

My parents owned a small house when I was little, but they sold it because my dad couldn’t stand working for someone else. He sold the house so that he could become self-employed and most of my child years of renting crummy apartments and having no health insurance. I developed illnesses and became partially deaf as a result of medical neglect. The cars we had needed to be started with screwdrivers, we ate pasta with no protein, things like that.

My young adulthood was rough too but things eventually turned around. I make good money now doing interesting work. We live in a beautiful SFH in a nice neighborhood and have affordable healthcare and nice cars. My kids have never gone without healthcare they needed and have more nutritious food than I had. They will graduate college without debt and I will be able to retire possibly before 60. My kids have traveled and gone on several big international trips and have sports and activities and cars paid for.

It helps that I only had 2 kids but I also made better choices elsewhere.[/quote]
