[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My philosophy is that whoever has the most money should always pay.[/quote] Interesting philosophy. So we both have families who make less then us. Everyone feels like we are the rich ones and expect us to pay. We now started to avoid all our relatives.[/quote] yeah, interesting. My spouse and I both work UMC jobs and pay for childcare, grad school debt, a mortgage, high taxes and try to save for retirement and kids' college. Our 70 yo parents are retired from middle class pension jobs, are frugal, have several rental properties and live in a low cost area. On a net basis, the probably have more disposable income each year than us. And on an assets/savings level they absolutely have more money than us. Luckily they are so cheap they hate vacations and hate eating out, unless someone else pays their way. So I guess all that's left is them vegging out at our house a week or two. [/quote]
