[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the OP from the thread referenced here.  I am well aware of the financial difficulties that many people face.  I get that people often don't have money for gas or groceries.  I have relatives who use food banks and give plasma.  My parents earned their money through a very unglamorous business and did not grow up wealthy.  I grew up in flyover country. In my work I have also lived in some extremely disadvantaged communities (and I mean literally sharing the same housing as people who have nothing ) in the US and abroad  If anything it is my DH who is completely out of touch with the financial difficulties people face.  He grew up with professional parents in a wealthy suburb and he just doesn't get that their are people who have nothing for retirement let alone to pay the rent or a car repair.  You are making some serious generalizations here.  [/quote]

OP, I think you are out of touch and entitled. DP here.  I know people who grew up with professional parents in a wealthy area - and they were considered working poor - not just for that area, for most areas.

You don't know someone's situation, so don't try to tell us how your husband should spend HIS money.  It is not your money. Period. [/quote]
