[quote=Anonymous]Kind of. IL family is prob from a bit of a lower class (I hate to say this) but it's weird how this affects our spending habits. For example, I'd say my family is more the "millionaire next door" type. Like, we have lots of $$ in bank, went to good schools, etc. but otherwise are very abstemious, frugal, etc. Don't get wowed by name brands, aren't out to impress, don't drive flashy cars, but the cars we have are fully paid for right off the lot, etc. IL family -- more status-conscious imho. Ask me all the time about what schools I am looking into for DD; I shrug this off. They live, everyday, much "higher on the hog" but scraped by to send the kids to state school, whereas we went to private. Must buy name brands in stores. Spends loads of $$ on food. Things like this. It's just different. [/quote]
