[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is more common than people realize - also people tend to assume everyone is in the same situation as them. I live in Arlington in a neighborhood of $750k-$1.5M homes. I have heard plenty of people make comments that assume that every family has an extra $50 - 500 for a coach gift, impromptu dinner out, last minute invite to a baseball game or long weekend at a cabin. I’m also heard comments that acknowledge an unplanned expense at the end of the month is an issue - can’t purchase school supplies until payday, can’t take care of a tree that came down in a storm immediately, can’t fix a car after a fender bender, thought the recital costume payment was next month. These comments are made as if everyone shared the same stress and dread over unplanned bills. [/quote] What? It’s incredibly NORMAL to not have enough money for various unexpected items. Do you really live in that much of a bubble! Money doesn’t grow on trees, remember…[/quote]
