[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, I get it. I grew up poor -- dirt roads and mustard sandwiches poor -- and now have more money than I ever could have dreamt of. I had the same concern that my children would not know the value of hard work and ethics and looked for the same advice about becoming comfortable with money management that you are now seeking. Years ago, I found a book written by a SF area psychologist about this very subject. I wish I could remember the title or author but it escapes me. It was really helpful with my own adjustment as well as providing guidance as to how to approach child rearing. So I guess my best advice is to try to find a neutral, objective source of guidance whether it be a book, financial planner or some other counselor. You and your spouse worked hard for this and the next step is to manage it. No guilt, no preach involved.[/quote]
