[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Comparison is the enemy of joy, people. [/quote] This. I grew up in food stamps in the Deep South but didn't know I was poor because everyone I knew also was on food stamps or close to it. No one had new clothes, I thought that's how life was for everyone and I was pretty happy. Now in DC Imy family has a 6 figure income, which back home would have been unthinkably rich, but my peers here are so much wealthier than I ever knew existed back home. If this is my new comparison group I'm poor and I'm frankly less happy here.[/quote]
