[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oddly, how much money you have doesn't seem to be correlated with how poor/rich you feel. My parents didn't have much starting out but we never noticed, we had whatever we needed, we were happy with less by today's standards. Now I have more money than they did, but feel poor. On paper I'm rich but can't afford to buy a home in this area.[/quote] If you always had everything you needed that’s all that mattered. Many of us grew up severely poor and did not in fact have everything we needed. And renting is just fine. I mean, my parents never owned a home when I was growing up and still don’t. It’s not a need, but I never got yearbooks growing up because my parents couldn’t afford them. I asked for a yearbook every year. I got a job when I was 16 so I was able to get one my junior and senior year at least. I get my kids yearbooks every year. [/quote]
