[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your problem is that you think that you should be swimming in money Scrooge McDuck style on that money. Not reasonable. [/quote]

Why shouldn't they think that? Half the people on this thread have jumped in to point out that they make 17 times the median income or whatever. Either $300k is rich and you should live like Scrooge McDuck or its middle class for around here. Can't be both.[/quote]

Middle class is not the same as poor.

Also, it is absolutely preposterous to look at other people's vacations and home additions, and start feeling sorry for yourself. I know it's natural and normal, but it is ridiculous.

Try, try to get some perspective. You are so fortunate, so unbelievably lucky to have what you have. Other people going on vacation more often than you do while you manage homes, and loans, and nannies, and all the rest of it, is really not something to go complaining about.

People in DC have family money. They have lobbyist and defense contractor jobs. They are WEALTHY, not just rich. You are merely rich, so you can't do everything that they do. It's really not going to kill you.[/quote]
