[quote=Anonymous]I have felt similarly about a friend (well the DH and DW both are friends). I say it about her, because I was closer to her of course.
They hit it big, and then again. So they went from our level to more rich. Then like.. just way above our means.
Same good friends, same values and fun times. (More fun times, it’s like nonstop fun for them when they just can buy their fun).

But, I think I’d be the same as them…. It’s like they were upgrading everything. Like I said, I’d do the same. But, they became SO busy. Fast paced life.

I’ve had slow times in life when our project money/fun money/upgrade money/guilt-free money is dry for the month. Say, it’s July 20 and I have to wait for Aug 1 when we set a new budget, in order to spend. Those last 10 days I take things slowly, we do free stuff, I appreciate what we have around me.

For my friends, it just non-stop. The budget is wide open, so there’s always something to plan and change. New cabinets arriving, dislike a new foyer table (sell it to a neighbor, get a new one), hiring the pool cleaners, picking a new dog house for the new puppy, going shoe shopping).

So our friendship was different, because that’s what she has to talk about. And I’m like, “we only spent $15 on dinner the other night, that was cool.”[/quote]
