[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, insane. Why would you feel embarrassed? This isn’t that uncommon, especially if you grew up in the wealthier suburbs of a major city. Did you both grow up more middle class and then move here? [/quote] No we grew up in the DC suburbs/MoCo Our parents are both comfortable, my parents slightly less so. They gave us access to fantastic schools growing up so I guess I almost feel guilty that their sacrifices allowed us to be where we are today? I’m def overthinking it..[/quote] What did they sacrifice? It was their life. Parents want the best for their kids. They want them to be better off than they are. [/quote] I think the point is, the parents sacrificed their wealth by paying for their kids' education. Not wrong, as mentioned before, but not honest to say frame the issue as the OP's success alone, and not built upon generational wealth. [/quote]
