[quote=Anonymous]When I was dead broke in my early 20s. I had no cable, internet, a 25 year old junk car able to register as "classic"
$29 a year car insurance I fixed my self junkyard parts.

Never ate out. No paying coffee free are work. Never joined gym. Lived at home or cheap roommate rentals 22-29.

If you have no monthly fixed costs and no discretionary spending you can save.

My vacation trip was my friends had jobs they traveled and went to LA, PR and Florida for price of flight mooched off their hotel company paid for.

Also knew every happy hour.

Kids today have dogs, new iPhones, go to Starbucks, rent their own apartments, belong to gyms, lease cars and wonder where money goes. They also have too much student loans. They could have lived at home during school and did community college years 1 and 2 and graduated debt free.

They also eat more expensive food. Pretty much whatever frozen food on sale with a coupon I bought. Buying fresh organic food at Whole Foods or Harris Teather is expensive [/quote]
