[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's funny, I grew up UMC/UC and married someone who grew up LC (family of immigrants, lived in public housing). If anything, I have the opposite problem - he is more fancy than me in terms of spending habits. My parents spent a lot of money on properties, vacations, and activities, but not a lot on things like designer clothes, cars, tech, etc. I inherited that, and to me things like designer bags and flashy new cars are tacky and a waste of money. I don't need to upgrade my phone just bc there is a new one out. I think bc his family grew up with no money, they are more into conspicuous consumption. I think he has sort of come around to my way of thinking now (or maybe he is just happy that he doesn't have to spend $4000 on a purse for me every Christmas, like his sister's husband).[/quote] This has been my experience too. I’m from a wealthier background and much more frugal then my DH.[/quote]
