[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just hang out with teachers, preachers and social workers. They are all in the same bracket you are in, so no one will feel weird. Self select your social group, stay away from rich people. [/quote] Except they’re not because most teachers are married to another income provider. [/quote] Not me. I’m a single parent and a teacher and I make what the OP makes. We lived in a one bedroom until my DS started MS. I didn’t like the MS we were zoned for so we moved to a basement apartment in a great school district. It is technically a one bedroom but the living room is pretty large. My DS got the bedroom and I have a comfy pull out sofa for my bed. It works fine and my kid goes to a great school. There will always be people with more and less than you. My son has very wealthy friends but they are nice kids and their parents seem pretty nice too. We are doing better than a whole lot of people. We have a safe place to live, plenty of food and everything we need. The rest is just extra. [/quote]
