[quote=Anonymous]Having many friends who have dealt with downward mobility, I have found that they didn’t really need to be prepared for it. Their parents needed to be prepared for it. In most wealthy families, there’s the one kid usually the oldest who 150% embraces capitalism materialistic lifestyle. It’s not always the child sometimes they’re disgusted by it too. I think what happens is they become friends with people who are on the lower end of upper middle class not necessarily middle class and they see how much simpler that life is. It’s like all the kids that grew up in Chevy Chase and Potomac that now live in four corners or silver spring or Rockville. I really feel like they’re much happier than their parents ever were.[/quote]
